Special Events
Graywolf Literary Salon: Six Voices for Today
Join Graywolf Press for an evening of reflection, resilience, and hope.
Hear from six talented writers as they read from their work, reflect on the past year, and share their hopes for our collective future.
Admission to this online event is free, but we encourage donations to help complete Graywolf’s New Chapter Campaign, a $3 million initiative to strengthen our publishing program. We have approximately $200,000 left to raise, and we have been fortunate to secure a one-to-one match of $100,000 to help us close the campaign. In this time of challenges and change, we have been buoyed by the creativity of our writers, the loyalty of our readers, the strength of our staff, and the generosity of our donors. Thank you for your continued support!

This is why I love poems: they require me to sit still, listen deeply, and imagine putting myself in someone else’s unfamiliar shoes.
