Never been to Split Rock? Now’s your chance to check it out! Split Rock Soirées feature four evenings of readings and artists' talks that celebrate the energy, talent, and accomplishment of Split Rock’s 2008 faculty.

Open to the public, each lively Soirée is followed by a meet-the-artists reception during which audience members may enjoy refreshments and browse through a selection of the presenters’ books and Split Rock memorabilia. Best of all, you don’t have to be registered for a Split Rock workshop to participate!
