University Club of Portland Author-in-Residence Program:
The University Club of Portland’s Author-in-Residence program was established in 2004. It began due to the success of the Club’s annual Authors’ Night which has brought local authors to speak and socialize with Members for the last twenty years. The Author-in-Residence program enriches the membership experience and allows local authors to reach out to new audiences. The resident author receives a complimentary year-long membership in the University Club as well as access to reciprocal clubs worldwide. The author’s books are displayed prominently in the University Club Library and the author is able to make copies of their work for sale at the Club. Through lectures and/or workshops the author also has access to the large and select audience of the University Club membership.
