Local events are planned by volunteers. The Regional Team relies on the support and talent of our local members to bring a variety of programs to writers and illustrators that reside in the Inland Northwest. We are currently working on Fall 2026 events. If you have ideas to share, or a helping hand to offer, please email us today!

Meeting other SCBWI members is invaluable! Seeking publication is a complicated, complex pursuit. SCBWI companions are here to encourage and support your efforts. Your Regional Advisor can put you in touch with local members today. There are opportunities to meet in person or on Zoom for critiques, a book club, or an industry discussion group. Reach out for more information. Attending the Monthly Check-In & Chat Zoom is a great way to introduce yourself and meet other members in our region. The monthly meetings are on the first Monday of the month at 7pm. Meeting information is sent to your email closer to the day of the meeting.
