Sundress Reading Series Seeks Readers for Fall 2022
From August to November of 2022, the Sundress Reading Series will move back in person at our new venue at Pretentious Beer Co. in the Knoxville Old City.
The Sundress Reading Series is an award-winning literary reading series previously hosted on-ground in Knoxville, TN, just miles from the Great Smoky Mountains. An extension of Sundress Publications and the Sundress Academy for the Arts, the Sundress Reading Series features nationally-recognized writers in all genres from around the US while also supporting local and regional nonprofits.
Our readings take place the last Sunday of every month from 2-4PM EST. The fall series will take place on September 25, October 30, and November 27.
Readers will receive publicity across Sundress Publications' social media channels in the lead up to their event, an opportunity to sell books, and a minimum of a $50 honorarium.
We are currently seeking readers for our series with an emphasis on marginalized voices; please note in your cover letter if you identify as a BIPOC writer, a trans and/or nonbinary writer, and/or a writer with a disability.
To apply to read for the fall, send 6-8 pages of poetry or 8-15 pages of prose, a 50-100 word bio, CV (optional), and a ranking of preferred reading dates to sundresspublications@gmail.com. Please make sure the subject line reads "Reading Series Application – Your Name."
Applications to participate as a reader are open and the deadline to apply August 15, 2022. Those selected will be notified by late August.
