“If Dante had had the San Miguel experience, he may have written more about heaven and less about hell.” Tom Robbins

 

“San Miguel is full of unexpected riches, different from any other place in Mexico, and the conversations inspired by this Conference were exceptional. The ‘Viva Mexico’ Fiesta goes down in the books as one of the ten best parties I’ve ever attended in my life. I’m sure I can’t remember the other nine.” Barbara Kingsolver

 

“I came away deeply changed and enriched, and with a great longing to come back.”
Sandra Cisneros

 

“The San Miguel Writers’ Conference is one of the world’s most appealing literary gatherings.”
John Berendt

Creative Crossroads of the Americas: The cradle of Mexican Independence, San Miguel de Allende has long been a mecca for social creatives – writers, painters, musicians, poets, philosophers, liberation theology clergy. Maybe it’s the crisp mountain air. Maybe it’s the thermal pools infused with natural lithium. Maybe it’s the Dalai Lama’s blessing. Maybe it’s YOU this year walking the same cobblestone streets, breathing the same air,  soaking in the same thermal waters – maybe it’s you adding to the creative energy of this World Heritage City.
