Have you made your summer plans yet?
Well add Champaign-Urbana, Illinois to the list on September 27th and 28th for the Pygmalion Literary Festival, happening for the first time alongside the Pygmalion Music Festival (in it’s ninth year).
Tantalizing notes from press release: “Designed to showcase writers of national acclaim from the Midwest and beyond alongside Pygmalion’s well established lineup of musicians … the two-day event is free and open to the public thanks to the generous support of the University of Illinois’s Carr Reading Series and HOBART: another literary journal.” Read: all you have to do is get yourself there.
And really, how can you resist this line-up of Rumpus contributors, admired, and more:
