Born on Almanack Pond Road in Nantucket

As we embark on our 20th year as a not-for-profit organization, Screenwriters Colony is now Almanack Screenwriters, named after the magical farm on Almanack Pond Road, our home on Nantucket where writers have been coming since 2001 to write, reflect, and experience deep retreat. Our new identity is specific to our past, present, and future.

As Almanack Screenwriters, we will continue to find, support, and celebrate the people writing the most impactful stories for the screen. Almanack Screenwriters will be found wherever our programs and writers take us -- from Nantucket to New York to Nosara to Los Angeles -- but the heart and soul of our organization will always be rooted in the remote farmhouse on Almanack Pond Road where it all began.
