2 p.m.–4 p.m.

Mentor Series Reading with Aida Salazar and Molly Beth Griffin

Join us for a celebration of new children's literature as Mentor Series writers Aida Salazar and Molly Beth Griffin, alongside fellows Mari Richards and Skye Reddy.

The Loft Mentor Series in Poetry, Children's Literature, and Creative Prose is one of Minnesota’s most celebrated opportunities for emerging writers—bringing twelve early-career voices into intensive mentorship with eight nationally acclaimed poets and prose writers. This event offers a first look at their work-in-progress and a chance to celebrate the future of children's literature in Minnesota.

A limited number of pay-what-you-can seats will be available at the door on a first come, first served basis.
