Hassayampa Institute for Creative Writing
After twelve outstanding years, Hassayampa Institute is changing! Our newly revised, free, open-to-the-public literary series will provide four readings during the fall and spring. This year's NEA-sponsored theme, "Deepening the Dialogue" features some of the Southwest's most prominent authors from diverse backgrounds who work in multiple genres. These multicultural authors will stretch the Prescott area literary envelope by providing fresh perspectives on the cultures of our region. Each reading will focus on a specific topic. Please bookmark this site for upcoming additional programming!
