What the media are saying about Literary Arts’ Portland Book Festival (formerly Wordstock):

“Impossible to feel alone in your book nerdiness. . .The civic moment for literature Literary Arts had hoped for had happened.” —The Portland Mercury

“Portland’s dynamic and supportive small press scene, home to many daring voices that extend the fabric of literature, comes together once a year with the rest of the literary community at Wordstock. The blend of ‘Keep Portland Weird,’ the eager creativity of new writers and readers, and the presence of seasoned authors (last year’s Ursula K. Le Guin, Maggie Nelson, and Sandra Cisneros), can be felt as one rushes from event to event, waits in line, and walks through the book fair.” —Literary Hub

“The fest is packed with on-stage author conversations, interviews, panels, interactive Q + A’s, pop-up readings in galleries, teaching workshops, kids’ story times, live music, an expanded book fair and—in true Portland fashion—food trucks parked outside. In short, Wordstock’s new iteration celebrates contemporary literature in a way that feels, well, contemporary.” —Travel Portland

“A vibrant community event.” —Portland Business

“Hosted by Literary Arts, the festival is bigger and more anticipated than ever and will be set at the beautiful Portland Art Museum downtown. It will be a thriving place where literary creators and consumers of all ages can all come together to celebrate a mutual passion. The food trucks, beer, and live music are just an added bonus.” —Culture Trip
