Venue & Parking

The 2026 Spring Conference will be held in the Moore Humanities and Research Administration (MHRA) Building on the UNCG campus, 1111 Spring Garden Street, Greensboro, NC 27403. The MHRA Building is located at the corner of Spring Garden and Forest Streets.

Free parking will be available for Spring Conference registrants in the Oakland Avenue Parking Deck, across Forest Street from the MHRA Building (behind Yum Yum Better Ice Cream and Old Town Draught House).

PLEASE NOTE: To take advantage of the free parking, be sure to use the LOWER exit facing Highland Avenue, leading to Kenilworth Street. The gates should be open when the conference ends, but if you leave early, you will need to use the gate’s intercom button to tell the attendant you’re with the “Spring Writers’ Conference.”

Name tags, personalized schedules, and copies of the Schedule-at-a-Glance will still be available at the registration table the day of the conference.
