WELCOME!
We are a non-profit organization with 900+ members.
Thanks to our partnership with Marshes of Glynn Libraries, we sponsor Author Talks, Films, Writing Seminars, and Writing Workshops throughout the year (see the calendar below or click the Events tab). In addition, we partner with two local independent bookstores – G.J. Ford Bookshop and Righton Books.
We raise funds for the Marshes of Glynn – St. Simons Island Library branch by selling donated books at our bookstore (open Wednesdays & Saturdays from 9:30-3:30) and Fall & Spring book sales.
We award monetary grants to the St. Simons Library for cultural literacy programs and projects that help it achieve its strategic goals.
Our annual membership fee starts at $10.
