Why Sponsor?

Sponsorships help keep ticket prices affordable, fund scholarships, and fuel The Muse Writers Centers Community Outreach and Youth Programs while providing sponsors a tax deduction. Your business will be prominently featured to more than 230 conference attendees and speakers, most of whom live in Hampton Roads.

Your Impact

From wounded veterans rebuilding their voices to empowering youth in crisis, our Outreach and Youth Programs pair writing and wellness to support people facing trauma, homelessness, severe illness, bereavement, loss, and seniors in memory care.
