Donation protected
The Crater Literary Festival is an annual gathering of writers, readers, publishers, artists and art aficionados in Enugu, South-east Nigeria. The Crater Literary Festival features a variety of presentations, workshops, art exhibitions and readings by authors, spoken word artists, poets and theater group.
South East Nigeria has a strong community of creatives (writers, artists, poets, literary art aficionados e.t.c) and the Crater Literary Festival serves as a single annual event which brings them together for the purpose of:
. promoting budding local creatives
. connecting them with established creatives for mentorship and networking opportunities
The 2018 Crater Literary Festival is the 2nd edition which will hold on the 7th and 8th of December at the Conference room of the National Library, Enugu.
To encourage participation, we keep our festival open and free, which means we write grant proposals, pitch our ideas to businesses in order to secure sponsorship. Unfortunately, the feedback hasn't ben encouraging but the show must go on.
It is for this reason that we seek the support of the wider community in order to cover our operational cost for the festival. The theme of this year's festival is Landscape of Creativity. Panel discussions and conversations will revolve around the role of creativity in national development and practical ideas on how to boost the creative industry in south east Nigeria.
And because the demography of our festival attendees cut across every age and class, we are able to make difference by igniting or reigniting the reading culture and appreciate for the literary arts. With your support, we will continue to provide the quality programming our festival attendees expect and would enjoy.
I appeal to you to give whatever you can. Even if it's the smallest amount, it could still go a long way. Thank you again for the ongoing support for and commitment to literary arts.
