Gloucester Writers Center, Inc.
Our mission is to celebrate Cape Ann's rich literary legacy—and to promote civic engagement. The Gloucester Writers Center was founded to celebrate, preserve, and promote Gloucester's rich literary legacy, especially authors whose writings are born of the local cultural, political, historical, and physical landscape of Gloucester and Cape Ann - notably Vincent Ferrini (1913-2007) and Charles Olson (1910-1970). Housed in the home of late poet Vincent Ferrini, GWC is a gathering place and resource center for local, national, and international writers in all genres and realms of interest - supporting writers and readers through literary readings, community education, a writer-in-residence program, and the Maud / Olson Library & GWC archives of print materials and audio and video files.
