Volunteer Program

The Sun Valley Writers’ Conference extends special thanks to the hundreds of remarkable volunteers who generously donate their time and skills to make our event possible. Volunteers are asked to set aside three days to actively volunteer and to attend one pre-conference orientation session. We thank our volunteers by inviting them to listen to conference presentations when they are not on duty.

 

If you are interested in volunteering, please use the link below to fill out our online application or contact Maria Sanchez, SVWC Volunteer Coordinator, directly at [email protected] for more information. Please know, our volunteer positions are in high demand, and there is often a waitlist to join. Many of our volunteers have been with us for decades. However, we encourage you to fill out our application form so we can contact you if an opportunity becomes available.
