The Penticton Writers and Publishers are involved in many different activities in their community, including the Canwest Raise a Reader program.

Members of the P.W.A.P. and visiting authors offer their guidance in the classroom through ongoing mentorship of local students.

From time to time workshops are organized, offering the latest tips and tricks of a particular genre or area of interest.

In the past, amazing writing conferences have been hosted in Penticton by P.W.A.P., giving local talent a chance to mingle with industry leaders from all over North America.
