The 2025 Terroir Creative Writing Festival will be held on Saturday, May 3, from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at the Stoller Family Estate Experience Center in Dayton. Join us for a day of talks and workshops on creative writing and the writing life, featuring a variety of regional authors and publishing professionals.
The aim of the festival is to build a stronger literary community in our area by encouraging and spotlighting local writers while also making connections with the writing and publishing community beyond Yamhill County, but you don’t have to be a writer to attend. Anyone interested in writing, reading, and the literary life will find something to enjoy. The festival is open to anyone age 12 and up.
Further details will be posted here and on the Terroir Creative Writing Festival website as they become available. Registration will open here in March. You can sign up for email updates at the festival website.
The 2025 festival is supported by the Oregon Cultural Trust and Stoller Family Estate.
Since the first Terroir Creative Writing Festival in 2010, we have hosted both emerging and established writers from across the region. These include:
Ursula K. LeGuin, Molly Gloss, Jean Auel, Tracy Daugherty, Kim Stafford, Paulann Petersen, Henry Hughes, Fonda Lee, Chelsea Cain, Willy Vlautin, C. Morgan Kennedy, Andrea Stolowitz, Steve Duin, Laura Stanfill, Emily Grosvenor, Joe Wilkins, Barbara Drake, and many more.
With 10 to 15 speakers each year, many outstanding authors have shared the secrets of their craft, offered encouragement, and given readings from their works.
