Sponsored in part by Ohio Humanities, Literary Cleveland’s Inkubator Writing Conference is one of the largest free writing conferences in the country.

From September 6-8, the conference will feature virtual panel discussions with national authors all leading up to the big two-day in-person conference at the Cleveland Public Library on September 9-10. The in-person conference will consist of writing workshops, panel discussions, craft talks, teen writing programs, a book fair, a party, and a keynote address. Altogether, the Inkubator is a public celebration of writing in Cleveland that advances writers’ individual abilities, furthers artistic dialogue, fosters a more connected literary community, and invites more people to tell their stories.
