The Watershed Literary Festival, held at the Rye Meeting House, brings together readers and writers to explore ideas, spark imagination, and celebrate the creative accomplishments of writers from Rye, the Hudson River Valley, and the Greater New York region. The featured authors will delve into all aspects of the writing process during a series of events across literary genres, including fiction, memoir, sports journalism, poetry, and more. There are also creative writing workshops for adults and tweens. Authors will be available after sessions to sign and sell books.

​This event is run by volunteers and all proceeds benefit local non-profits (Rye Arts Center, Rye Free Reading Room, Rye Historical Society and Rye Meeting House). There is a suggested donation for each event of $20, payable by cash or Venmo on the day.
