The Writer’s Garret is thrilled to announce the first ever Dallas Is Lit! literary festival, happening May 10-14th, 2023. Featuring readings, performances, workshops and a book fair, the Dallas Is Lit! lineup shines light on all the ways we’re a literary city, from rom-com lit fans to collage poets, from book binding to drag queen storytime. Anchored in the heart of the city — in Dallas' beautiful Oak Cliff neighborhood — the festival takes an expansive view of what is literary and who creates and participates in those experiences, offering activities for a variety of ages and interests, connecting writers, readers, makers and audiences through the power of language and the literary arts.
