Upper Valley Literary Festival 2009
===Upper Valley Literary Festival=== October 16 & 17, 2009
Celebrate the literary arts of the Upper Valley! New Hampshire Writers' Project is expanding and spilling over the border! This fall, join us in White River Junction, Vermont. Let the click-clack of the train lull you and the fall foliage fly by as some of the presenters of the Upper Valley Literary Festival read from their work, hear poetry performed like never before, peer through the looking glass of the past, take a writing workshop, unleash your creativity, discover more about comics, hone your Hamlet with Peter Saccio, throw your hat in the ring for Literary Idol, and more.
All events are FREE and OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, unless otherwise noted.
