Coming to Conclusions (and coming to Texas): a Decade of Freeman’s

For the past ten years, the literary annual Freeman's has highlighted some of the best new writing from around the world, grouped around themes of importance, from power to love to change. And now, for its final issue, conclusions.

What does it mean to stop in a time where endless expansion is often prized -- personally, institutionally? How do we live a life that makes room for ceremonies of conclusions, without the narrowing effect of coming to conclusions?

Join editor John Freeman with contributors and 100 W resident alumni A. Kendra Greene, Kerri Arsenault and 100 W residency co-founder David Searcy as they read, discuss and celebrate the 10 years of coming together around great writing and conversation in Freeman's. Reception to follow.
