The Writers Guild Foundation, in partnership with the Writers Guild of America West and Deadline, present BEYOND WORDS 2026, our annual event highlighting this year’s Writers Guild Awards screenplay nominees.
Join us for two back-to-back panels featuring nominees for Adapted and Original Screenplay. Learn about their process for crafting the nominated scripts as well as their journeys navigating the industry as screenwriters.
Doors open at 6pm PT. Program begins at 7pm PT. A reception immediately follows the panels.
Early bird general admission tickets are available through Monday, January 26! Secure your ticket now before prices go up on Tuesday, January 27. WGA members can RSVP for free. All proceeds from ticket sales benefit the Writers Guild Foundation’s Library, Archive and Community Outreach Programs.
In the case the event is sold out, we will have a first come, first serve stand-by line at the event starting 30 minutes before doors open. The stand-by line does not guarantee entry into the event and we will only accept credit card transactions for any released seats.
