PATRONS

As usual the Festival will include: Public Events  |  Writers Workshops  Education sessions  |  Community outreach

We are a small and committed team and our goal is to keep events as affordable as possible because we believe that literature and writers should be accessible to everyone. But bringing the ‘talent’ to Hawkes Bay is challenging, This is where our Patrons, and hopefully YOU, come in. We’ve prepared some packages below we would like you to consider. If there is another option you’d like to discuss please let us know. Of course in addition to the ‘perks’ described we will provide a donation receipt for tax purposes. Thank you so much for considering patronage of the work of the Hawke’s Bay Readers and Writers Trust. Anything you give will make a world of difference to us. We look forward to your response and seeing you at one of our events as well.   $50 is a valuable contribution towards an event  it will get you Eternal Gratitude!
