The PEN/Faulkner Award Celebration
The PEN/Faulkner Award winner and finalists and the PEN/Faulkner Literary Champion are honored during an exquisite literary evening that features presentations by our PEN/Faulkner Award judges, original essays by the year’s five PEN/Faulkner Award finalists, and a star-studded list of notable guests.
Founding Friends
Run by board members Willee Lewis and Katherine Field Stephen, Founding Friends is a series of exclusive lunch-time gatherings that feature prominent writers. In the past, we have hosted writers as wide-ranging as Jean Case, Thomas L. Friedman, Marie Arana, Thomas Mallon, Dorothy Butler Gilliam, Jane Stanton Hitchcock, Molly McCloskey, and Eric Weiner.
Donors who contribute $400 or more are invited to attend our Founding Friends events. If you would like to become a Founding Friend member, you can join online or contact PEN/Faulkner at (202) 898-9063.
Our current virtual edition consists of intimate discussions with writers over Zoom.
