About this Event

A Celebration of Stories

The Salem Literary Festival aims to inspire and promote literacy and a love of books and reading by creating connections through sharing stories. Held over one weekend each fall, the festival features author readings, writing workshops, panel discussions, and a variety of artistic expressions—including music, theater, and dance.

Join us for a weekend that celebrates the written word and the many ways stories bring us together!
