Overview
Indiana Humanities will celebrate the power of writing that grows in the Midwest during the second annual Proof: A Midwest Lit Fest, offering a full schedule for writers, readers, and lovers of all things literary.
Hosted in partnership with local poets Mitchell L.H. Douglas and Chantel Massey, the festival will take place at the Harrison Center in Indianapolis and will include: a book fair with local booksellers and literary organizations; panel conversations; local and regional author readings; a local writers mixer; workshops led by experienced authors; bookish activities for all ages; an open mic; and food trucks, music, games, and prizes.
“We know the literary scene in Indiana and the Midwest is overflowing with talent, and we want to make sure Hoosiers have the opportunity to celebrate that,” said Megan Telligman, director of programs at Indiana Humanities. “This year, there will be even more opportunities to engage with renowned writers and local literary organizations and meet readers of all genres, and we hope everyone feels inspired to get involved in the blossoming literary community that can be found at Proof.”
