Writers Awards
Each year at the Golden Gate Conference, we award the annual Golden Gate Writer’s Award–one for a picture book and one for a MG or YA novel.
Faculty will choose candidates for the Writer’s Award from those writers who submit their work for a paid manuscript critique.
Winners receive:
A mention on our website
A complimentary registration for our next Golden Gate Conference
Note: Once you have been given an award, you are not eligible to win an award again for three years.
Illustrator Award
A faculty committee will select “Best in Show” candidates from all portfolios displayed at the Golden Gate Conference. The “Best in Show” will receive a complimentary registration for our next Illustrator’s Day.
Please note: The Golden Gate Portfolio Award is now awarded to attendees of our bi-annual Illustrator’s Day event.
