Wintergreen Women Writers Collective

For the last 37 years, Wintergreen has nourished and fostered the work of a broad and influential community of Black women writers and poets. Through the Collective, they have workshopped and critiqued writing that later appeared in print; seeded ideas that resulted in programs, conferences, and organizations; and given each other guidance on educational pedagogy as well as publishing, promoting, and naming books.
Vision and Mission: The history and legacy of Black women writers are honored and preserved. Black women writers have access to intergenerational spaces where, in community and mutuality, they can nurture one another and locate resources to support their creative practice.

Through nurturing and encouraging Black women writers, WWWC will publish, document, preserve, and celebrate their creative work.
FS Model: Model C, Pre-Approved Grant/Indirect Fiscal Sponsorship
Funder: Mellon Foundation

Throughout Wintergreen’s initial “Sacred Work” grant project, our partnership with Educopia proved invaluable in helping us develop the capacities and infrastructure needed to support our implementation activities. As we embark on our next phase of development, we look forward to continuing to explore new ideas and grow in thought partnership with them.
