Support writers and writing

Writers need more than time and talent.
They need opportunities, professional support and a community around them.

Your donation helps MARION create paid opportunities for writers, deliver workshops and public programs, support new and underrepresented voices, and connect writers with readers and each other.

MARION has supported writers in Canberra and the surrounding region since 1995. As a not-for-profit and registered charity, we rely on public funding, membership and the generosity of our community to continue this work.

Every contribution helps us build a stronger future for writers and writing.
