Nevada Humanities Literary Crawl
The Nevada Humanities Literary Crawl is a day-long festival about books, ideas, and the humanities that brings people together annually to celebrate Nevada’s rich literary talent. During the exploratory event, notable local, regional, and national authors convene at venues throughout downtown Reno, where they give readings of fiction, non‐fiction, and poetry. The day also includes writing workshops, panel discussions, art installations, and performances. Access to all events is free, and all ages are welcome to participate at a variety of family-friendly readings and activities. The Nevada Humanities Literary Crawl is the largest literary event in northern Nevada.
The Nevada Humanities Literary Crawl is on hiatus for 2023, but we look forward to bringing you a dynamic and exciting Literary Crawl program in 2024. Watch our website for updates in the coming year. We also hope to see you at our many literary events and programs held throughout the state, including National Book Festival programs, the Las Vegas Book Festival, Nevada Reads, and more.
