The 2025 Winter Conferences are Almost Here!

First we have the in-person, in New York City, SCBWI 2025 Winter Conference from Jan 31 - Feb 2, 2025.



The keynotes! (Erin Entrada Kelly! Peter Brown! Sophie Blackall!)

The panelists! (Andrea Pinkey! Francesco Sedita! Wedy Loggia! Wendi Gu! moderated by TeMika Grooms!)

The Creative Labs, the socials, the portfolio showcase -- there's so much cool stuff happening, and we hope you'll join us in the Big Apple.

Then we have the virtual SCBWI 2025 Winter Conference from Feb 21-22, 2025.


It's a whole other amazing conference - with two industry panels – one on Making your Manuscript or Portfolio Stand Out, with Thao Le! Jessica Saint Jean! and Christy Ewers! and the other on The Outlook for Children's Publishing for 2025, with Tricia Lawrence! Jane Chun! Stacey Barney! and Foyinsi Adegbonmire!

Two inspirational talks, one from Torrey Maldonado! and the other from Vanessa Brantley Newton!

A first pages panel with two agents (Sera Rivers! John Cusick!) and an editor (Bria Ragin!) 

And three creative labs, where you can attend one live and watch recordings of the other two!

There's lots more, including peer critiques and networking -- we hope you'll join us online for this one.
