As part of Brilliant Baltimore, the return of the Baltimore Book Festival each fall, CityLit Stage presents quality, diverse programming over the course of the festival’s three days.
CityLit Stage curates panels to elicit a deeper understanding and exchange of ideas. We welcome challenging conversations, amplify the voices of people of color, devote one full-day to outstanding poetry, and present a lively platform of performances.

CityLit Stage
I was delighted to be in conversation with other women at various stages of our careers doing such thoughtful and meaningful work. Thank you for the time and energy spent organizing the event and bringing our work as writers in conversation with music.
