Join Black Mountain Institute for a reading “exchange” with writers from four different MFA programs: the Institute of American Indian Arts (IAIA), New Mexico State (NMSU), the University of California, Riverside (UC Riverside), and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV). 

This program was created by writing programs at four institutions situated in unique southwest environments where our worlds are changing rapidly. We want to bring our writers into conversation with one another to grow in community, enjoy each other’s artistry and share what it looks like to be writing from our landscapes today.
