Conversations and Connections Conference

Conversations and Connections is a one-day writer’s conference that brings together writers, editors, and publishers in a friendly, supportive environment. The conference is organized by Barrelhouse magazine, and has been held for the past 15 years in Washington DC, and the past 6 in Pittsburgh, with 3 virtual pandemic conferences. September 2023 marks our return to Philadelphia. All proceeds go to participating small presses and literary magazines, and to Barrelhouse.
