Our Partners & Fundraising

We are proud to have partnered with several organizations across the state to help bring our vision to life. CT Humanities, our most long-standing partner, has supported nearly all past programming. The festival has also received support from River Bend Bookshop, Friends and Enemies of Wallace Stevens, the Hartford Public Library, and CT Institute for Refugees and Immigrants. 

The festival is also grateful to receive donations from individual sponsors and sells the small batches of merchandise that it produces on a pay-what-you-can scale at events, ensuring unexpected costs do not create additional barriers for our patrons.
