Riverside, CA (August 24, 2021) Come out for Riverside Arts Walk on Thursday, September 2, 2021, and join Inlandia Institute at the new Main Library for the launch of 2020 Writing from Inlandia! This yearly anthology has been published since 2011 and is an Inlandia tradition, with contributors from sixteen of Inlandia’s creative writing workshops in the 2020 edition. Packed with over 300 pages of stories, poems, and essays, 2020 Writing from Inlandia explores the experience of being alive through memoir, food writing, reflections on the COVID pandemic, and more. The program begins at 7:00 PM, and will include participants reading their work aloud in reflection of the myriad challenges – and rewards – of being human. Inlandia books will be available for purchase, and light refreshments will be served. Don’t miss it!

In memory of Candace Shields, Morris Mendoza, and CelenaDiana Bumpus.
