The Literary Series at 1900, a celebration of the written word. Each event in the series will showcase emerging and established writers in conjunction with the other art forms we have enjoyed presenting for years - music, film, visual art, and food and drink. No matter your background with literature, the Literary Series will be the perfect space for discovering new and long-enjoyed literary voices.

At the beginning of each year, the 1900 Building will introduce a theme to shape the year’s literary events. This year, we have chosen the topic of PLACE. Together with audiences, we have the opportunity to explore where we are and why it matters.

Our first two events on March 7, 2025 focused on The Poetry of Place and they were great fun and inspiring! We are now inviting you, our 1900 Building friends, to contribute your sense of place to a collection of writing on where we are and why it matters. Ideally, we’d like to compile the submissions to make a chapbook, a small booklet that contains poems, stories, or other writing. We plan to keep the submissions open through the year.

The next installment in the Literary series will take place in Fall 2025. At that time, we will present the writings we have to date.
