F Scott Fitzgerald Literary Conference Inc.

The F. Scott Fitzgerald Literary Conference, founded in 1996 to commemorate the 100th birthday of celebrated American author F. Scott Fitzgerald, continues to celebrate Fitzgerald's life and work by honoring great American writers over a series of days around his birthday. We also celebrate Fitzgerald's connections to Rockville and his paternal ancestors were from Montgomery County, Maryland. We honor the fact that Fitzgerald, along with his wife Zelda and his daughter Scottie, are buried, in the cemetery of St. Mary’s Roman Catholic Church in Rockville. All of celebrations around these require planning to invite master class speakers and workshop leaders to a venue, normally in person, but now held virtually. Planning takes place over a 12 month period and includes an advertising budget, social media support, development of materials (some online some handed out such as a Program), registration support etc.

Help organize annual events such as book club discussions, selection of workshop topics and workshop leaders, assistance with website and news announcements, development of publicity and help getting the word out, help with financial reports.
