Who are we?

The Foothills Writers Group is an inclusive community of adult writers
living in Okotoks and the Foothills area.

Our Mission

At FWG, we empower writers to reach their creative potential through education, networking opportunities, community, and support.

Dedicated to growing and succeeding together, we leverage our skills and strengths, share knowledge freely, and whenever possible, create opportunities for our authors to find readers. Find out more.
