Join us October 6th - 17th for a 2 week long celebration of literature in its many storied forms!
Lit Fest kicks off October 6th with a hands-on book binding workshop led by librarian Phil Skurski and is punctuated halfway through by the Tabet Poetry reading October 9th--which will be given by Ross Gay this year. The Lit Fest concludes October 17th but will keep the literary momentum flowing by leading straight into the Medieval + Monsters Conference, October 17th-18th.
While we are sill inking all the details, here are some events you can anticipate seeing in the Fall:
- Student Readings
- Book Swap/Sale
- Scary Storytelling
- Multilingual Literature Salon
- Book Cover Bedazzling
- DIY Book Binding repeat event

Want to host an event but unsure what it should be? Some potential events we'd love to see are:
- Literature focused academic/research talk
- Staged reading of a (short) play
- Writing workshop
- Guest speakers
Of course, please still share any other ideas you may have! Lit Fest is both a celebration of Literature and the Dominican community as a whole.
All submissions will be considered, though not all may be selected for this year's Lit Fest.
