In order to provide educational opportunities and unity for columnists, bloggers, and other opinion writers, the National Society of Newspaper Columnists will host its Annual Conference from June 20-23, 2019 in Buffalo, New York, at the historic Henry Urban Hotel and Conference Center. NSNC's 2019 conference program will include how-to workshops, industry experts, Pulitzer Prize-winning columnists, and nationally renowned journalists.
In NSNC we believe that knowledge is power. Through contributions from generous donors, NSNC will be able to fund the educational sessions at the 43nd Annual Columnists Conference, arming columnists with the knowledge they need to pursue their craft ethically. We also believe that there is strength in numbers. Our conferences enable us to build solid networks among our members, so that we can fight for a free press with solidarity.
