Screenwriters Group
The IFP/PHX Screenwriters’ Group strives to provide a creative, supportive and fun environment for local screenwriters to interact, learn and develop their craft. Our goal is to encourage the development of ideas and the completion of scripts that are ready to enter the marketplace.
We welcome anyone with interests or goals in the areas of screenwriting and film, and anyone else who’s interested, to come to a meeting and see what we’re all about. Join us and help our community grow.
