Festival of Words

Grand Coteau's annual Festival of Words returns this year with three featured authors and two days of wonderfully wordy events—all for free. Enjoy workshops, community readings, and author meet-and-greets around the inspired small town. This year's authors are all Louisiana writers, including poet and memoirist Sheryl St. Germain, short story writer Gabriel Houck, and poet Gina Ferrara. Details to come at festivalofwords.org.
