About [margins.] Virtual Conference
Brought to you by The Word, [margins.] literary conference and festival was created in 2020, in response to the request from our community. The first of its kind, [margins.] is a conference, bookfair, and literary festival. The 3rd [margins.] Conference will be a virtual conference.
[margins.] brings together writers, storytellers, and wordsmiths at all levels of experience to explore emerging trends in literature and the many approaches to storytelling, visioning and creating, education, inclusion, advocacy, organizing, and building community. The [margins.] conference + festival was created by and for people on the margins, promoting the inclusive representation of experiences in literature for communities who have historically been excluded.

Scholarship/Reduced Cost:
The Word is committed to serving as many people with our programs as possible, including the biannual [margins.] conference. While we may not be able to honor every request, the reduced/free registration option aims to increase access to the conference and festival for those who qualify. Individuals qualify for the reduced/free registration option based on: 1) Identifying as from a historically marginalized group based on racial, cultural, ethnic, or religious identity; gender identity; sexual orientation; physical, cognitive, or emotional disability; socioeconomic adversity; and personal experiences of adversity or injustice, AND 2) Their financial need.
