Event Details

Proof: A Midwest Lit Fest was developed by local poets Mitchell L.H. Douglas and Chantel Massey in partnership with Indiana Humanities, home of the Eugene and Marilyn Glick Indiana Authors Awards. We also offer thanks to Tomorrow Bookstore, Dream Palace Books and Coffee, the Indiana Young Readers Center at the Indiana State Library for their support in the early days of festival planning. We also thank our sponsors, The National Bank of Indianapolis, the Penrod Society, and the Harrison Center for the Arts.

Proof celebrated the power of writing that grows in the Midwest. Things to look forward to: a book fair with local booksellers; conversations about the literary Midwest; local and regional author readings; opportunities to connect with publishers and literary magazines; workshops led by experienced writers; bookish activities for all ages; food, drink, music, games, and prizes!
