About:

The Guild Complex’s 35 Writers to Watch list (link: https://guildcomplex.org/35-writers-to-watch/) celebrates the Guild’s 35+ years of innovative programming by featuring local writers whose careers represent the future of the literary arts in Chicago, and whose work reflects the spirit and values of the Guild Complex today. Names were put forth by our folks from the Guild’s diverse literary network of writers and organizers from across Chicago’s geographies and communities (and beyond).
 
Join us for an exciting reception celebrating these authors, and to enjoy music, refreshments, fellowship, and the opportunity to rub elbows with emerging literary icons you'll be proud to say you knew when. 

The Guild Literary Complex has been around for more than 35 years as a grassroots literary arts organization creating performance-based events in and around the Chicagoland area. We partner and collaborate with other community groups on social and restorative justice issues, providing arts and advocacy programming for marginalized voices.
