The Connecticut Literary Festival is a year-round organization that provides programming in three broad areas: an on-ground literary carnival, a literary anthology of Connecticut writers, and virtual Lit Talks. This year, the on-ground festival is slated for October 22-23, 2021, at Real Art Ways. In addition to providing a space for readers and writers across the state, The Connecticut Literary Festival provides a venue for the voices of the underrepresented, including Native American authors.
