The PEI Writers’ Guild arranges and pays for author visits to public schools to inspire children and teachers about the act of writing. Authors are matched with a teacher through a specific set of program guidelines developed over the years. Teachers have time to discuss and collaborate on the author’s presentation if they so desire, and sometimes writers will address specific curriculum components.

For October 2011, this program is funded by the Cultural Capitals of Canada designation for the City of Charlottetown. It is free to students and teachers. PEIWG hopes to expand this program as we can currently meet only about 20% of the demand.
