Celebrate writing. Raise funds.
Our fundraising events are joyous gatherings full of food, fun, and extraordinary words from authors and book lovers. They also help us gather funds to support our work.
We host Night of 1,000 Words in the spring, Novel Nights in the fall, and Write-O-Rama—a lively day to sample Hugo House classes—in the winter and summer. We have opportunities for everyone to get involved in thrilling events that keep Hugo House running.
Join us for one of our annual fundraising events.
Novel Nights
Part book club, part celebration, Novel Nights is a fun approach to the literary salon. We delve into the depths of recently published books in the company of some beloved authors, fellow book-lovers, and friends—all while supporting Hugo House.
Next Novel Nights: Early November 2022
Check back in September 2022 for details and tickets.
