Welcome to the Arvon Foundation's online catalogue of courses for 2009.

All courses are now available to search. You can view all courses or search them by genre, tutor, month and centre using the drop down menus below right.

This year we have more courses than ever to inspire your creativity and imagination. From writing your first novel and advanced poetry to nature and food writing and book making - we have courses for everyone.

So get booking. You can view all our writing courses for adults in this section. Find out about Arvon writing weeks - what happens on the courses, what past students say, the accommodation and food. You can also request a brochure and book your course online too.

Stay around. Why not read some of the stories and poems our school groups have written in the Writing Room? Or feast your eyes in the Arvon Friends' online zone. Why not join Arvon Friends for advance viewing and booking for 2010, as well as other benefits and discounts throughout 2009.
