“For me, the writing must come from a desire to understand myself and the world with greater clarity and depth.”
–Deborah Taffa

Dear Festival Friends,

If you have already made a gift to support the 2025 Festival, we thank you. If you are still deciding whether or not to give, we hope you will join us today.

By helping us bring award-winning authors like Terry Tempest Williams, Deborah Taffa, Viet Thanh Nguyen, and Pervical Everett to Santa Fe, you are an integral part of our success. Your gift enables us to host renowned authors whose voices unite our community.

In thanks for your participation, all donors of $100 or more will receive pre-sale access before tickets go on sale to the general public.

Thank you for being a part of our Festival family!

Megan Mulry, Executive Director
