The Authors Guild Foundation invites you to join us on Thursday, May 30, for the 32nd Annual Authors Guild Foundation Gala at Pier Sixty in NYC, hosted by actor and author Molly Ringwald.
This prestigious literary event gathers some of the most notable writers of our time and literary enthusiasts to celebrate the achievements and contributions of individuals who have made significant impacts on the literary community and raises critical funds to support our important work. In an era marked by book banning and artificial intelligence, many authors are struggling to navigate the changing industry and earn a living. The Authors Guild and Foundation are at the forefront of the fight to champion and safeguard the rights of authors.
