In the Time of Butterflies - The Story of Adaptation

Lighthouse Writers Workshop is partnering with Denver Public Library and Denver Arts & Venues to bring the NEA Big Read to town this fall!

Lighthouse Writers Workshop, in partnership with Denver Arts & Venues and the Denver Public Library, invites you to #ReadWithUs this fall! As part of the NEA Big Read program, we'll be hosting a citywide discussion based on In the Time of the Butterflies by Julia Alvarez, a novel about family, finding your voice, and fighting injustice.

We've partnered with arts organizations across the city to deliver a full slate of events, including book discussions, writing workshops, art-making sessions, live performances, and more. Copies of the book will be available at select locations throughout the city, as well as local bookstores and libraries.

Join a panel discussion between filmmakers and writers discussing the relationship between literature and film, as part of the Denver Film's annual Denver Film Festival. Find tickets at denverfilm.org.
