KEROUAC WRITERS WEEKEND

Immerse yourself in the world of one of America's most original and iconic writers:

Write in the historic cottage where Jack Kerouac wrote Dharma Bums and learned On the Road would be published.
Stay in an historic art deco, period-furnished hotel.
See the original Dharma Bums manuscript.
Enjoy classic Kerouac spoken-word and jazz recordings.
Participate in a public reading.
Learn about one of the most prolific periods of Kerouac's life from pop culture historian Bob Kealing, author of Kerouac in Florida: Where the Road Ends.

Work and learn within the very walls where Jack Kerouac lived hand-to-mouth, plied his trade, and ultimately made literary history. ~ Bob Kealing

$495 fee includes a 3-day seminar, 2 nights at the Wellborn Hotel, admission to the Orange County History Center, transportation between the hotel and the Kerouac House, and a copy of Kerouac in Florida. Meals are extra, at restaurants that are an easy walk on roads Jack Kerouac traveled. A portion of the proceeds will support the work of the Jack Kerouac Writers In Residence Project of Orlando, a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving Kerouac's home and legacy in Orlando.
