Press Release
Tickets are now on sale to the public for this year's Charleston Literary Festival (CLF) featuring a highly-anticipated list of some of the world’s most celebrated thinkers and writers who will be coming to Charleston this fall.
Charleston Literary Festival, running November 4-13 in Charleston, is a beloved event for book lovers. The Festival is curated to allow festival goers to see their favorite writers in person while being exposed to a broad mix of themes, ideas, and books. In addition, through its onstage conversations, the Festival provides a much-needed opportunity for connection, dialogue, and joyful celebration in an increasingly complex world.
