About the Festival: Revival: Lost Southern Voices celebrates historically excluded, erased, or marginalized Southern voices. During this annual literary festival, presenters discuss Southern authors or artists whose works are out-of-print or otherwise do not receive the attention they deserve. We invite the public, scholars, students, writers, and inquisitive readers to join the conversation as we continue to discover and revive these Lost Southern Voices.

This festival is free and open to the public, but we welcome donations if you'd like to support our work.
