Austin Film Festival hosts a yearly screenwriters and filmmakers’ retreat at the artists’ haven Ghost Ranch in Abiquiu, New Mexico. This year, our creative getaway will take place August 11-15, 2024. In a small group setting, the retreat explores finding and developing your creative voice.
This year, Wendy Calhoun (writer/producer – The Rookie: Feds, Prodigal Son, Station 19, Empire, Nashville, Revenge, Justified) and Jim Hart (writer Hook, Bram Stoker’s Dracula, Contact, Muppet Treasure Island, August Rush, The Hot Zone) will speak and offer insight on their writing process.
Previous attendees have described the Ghost Ranch Writers Retreat as:
– “The AFF Writers Retreat is a deeply meaningful experience for all writers. Its humanity, its warmth, its sincerity; none can be overstated.”
– “By far my best investment to grow and challenge my writing in a supportive environment.”
– “A magical historical creative oasis, a place where ideas and conversations flow and grow. You disconnect to reconnect—one of the best experiences I’ve ever had.”
We are currently offering a $25 off promo code for AWF member use: GHOST25OFF.
Hope to see you at Ghost Ranch! If you have any questions on the event, please feel free to visit our website or call the Austin Film Festival office at 512-478-4795.
