Native Authors Program: Public Readings

Join us for an inspiring evening as we proudly present the 2025 Native Authors Program cohort in an intimate public reading of their captivating works-in-progress. This talented group of emerging Native authors has spent months immersed in a program to diligently hone their craft under the guidance of mentor Art Coulson.

Through intensive peer-to-peer reviews, lively discussions with esteemed guest speakers, and in-depth advice on navigating the complexities of the publishing world, these authors have been meticulously developing original pieces of writing. Each work is a unique reflection of their individual experiences, rich cultural heritage, and diverse perspectives, offering powerful and authentic narratives that resonate deeply.

Featuring Readings From:

  • Carla Drumbeater
  • Genevieve Lane
  • Ron Leith
  • Kirsten Wittmann
  • Wakaya Wells

This is a rare opportunity to hear their powerful voices and compelling stories firsthand. Come and meet the cohort, engage with their creative journey, and celebrate the vibrant tapestry of Native literature.
