The Writers House of Georgia supports the development of Georgian literature, its promotion abroad and its translation into other languages. It maintains contact with international literary networks, participates in international projects and book fairs, organises visits for foreign publishers and hosts residencies for writers and translators. The House is also the organiser of the Tbilisi International Festival of Literature.
There are a number residencies available worldwide offering writers the opportunity to encounter a new place and other artists whilst having time to focus on their work.
