Wordstock is dedicated to celebrating writing in the community and writing in the classroom. It stages the city of Portland's annual book and literary festival, the largest celebration of books and writers in the Northwest. Wordstock 2011 will be held October 8th and 9th at the Oregon Convention Center in Portland, Oregon. The Wordstock Book Fair will feature over 200 writers and over 20 panels on several stages over two days with hundreds of exhibits, food, performances and more.

This is the schedule 

Wordstock, through its Wordstock for Teachers program, also works to improve the writing/literacy skills of elementary and middle school students by raising the standard of writing instruction. Since 1997, over 1,300 teachers have participated in our program, benefitting tens of thousands of students in Oregon, Washington, and Califorrnia.
