The Booranga Writers' Centre was established to serve and promote the interests of local writers, and has been active in the Riverina region since 1994.
Booranga serves its members and the local community through hosting Writers-in-Residence at the Booranga facility located on the Charles Sturt Campus in Wagga Wagga, and through the publication of its annual anthology fourW. We also support local and visiting writers with venues, book launches and reading events.
Visiting Writers-in-Residence give readings, facilitate workshops and are available to mentor local writers, while working on their own projects and enjoying the picturesque grounds around the Booranga Cottage on Charles Sturt's Wagga Wagga Campus.
