Lannan Readings & Conversations Program

Lannan presents a wide variety of public programs focusing on literature, cultural freedom, and indigenous community issues. The most visible of these programs is the very popular Readings and Conversations series which brings nationally and internationally recognized poets and writers to Santa Fe to read and discuss their work in a public setting.

The series usually begins each September and runs through June of the following year. A typical Readings & Conversations evening lasts about an hour and a half with the poet or writer reading from his or her work then having a conversation with another writer, poet, editor, publisher, or literary figure. All events are scheduled in Santa Fe at the Lensic Performing Arts Center. Purchase Tickets for Lannan Events
