We’re thrilled to invite our community of readers, writers, and literary friends to gather once again for a memorable evening at our 2025 Literary Salon, taking place on Thursday, September 25 at Glass House in Minneapolis.
We are excited to welcome Chloé Caldwell (Trying) and Joshua Wheeler (The High Heaven) for a dynamic onstage conversation, moderated by our director and publisher Carmen Giménez. Local writer chaun webster will open the program with an exclusive glimpse into his debut nonfiction project, arriving from Graywolf in 2026.
The evening will feature a social reception with drinks and light bites before our literary program, with book sales and signing to follow.
Join us to raise funds for bold, risk-taking literature and celebrate award-winning authors whose words transform our culture.

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