About
There must be something in the soil! Nine of America’s most celebrated authors called middle Georgia their home. Pulitzer Prize winner Alice Walker and best-selling writer Joel Chandler Harris began their literary journeys in Eatonton, Georgia. Five more lived and wrote within a 30-mile radius of the Georgia Writers Museum.
In total, more than 90 writers from across the state are recognized at the Georgia Writers Museum for their literary success by receiving the Georgia Writers Hall of Fame induction, the Georgia Author of the Year Lifetime Achievement Award, or the Townsend Prize. Only three authors have received all three honors – visit us to find out who!
Georgia Writers Museum is dedicated to inspiring today’s writers and readers and celebrating Georgia’s literary heritage through exhibits, programs, workshops, and student education.
