About this Event

🎤 AR LIT: Arkansas writers read Arkansas writers

From famed novelists like Charles Portis to legendary poets like Frank Stanford, Arkansas has a rich literary history that punches far above its weight. “Arkansas Life” and our friends at the Arkansas Folklife Festival are excited to showcase this legacy with “AR LIT: Arkansas Writers Read Arkansas Writers” on Wednesday, June 24, at 6 p.m. at the ACANSA Gallery in Argenta.

We’ll have contemporary writers like Eli Cranor, Philip Martin and Graham Gordy reading their Natural State favorites. This event is free but registration is required.
