Lake Superior Writers

Fostering a vibrant literary arts community in northeastern Minnesota and northern Wisconsin

Lake Superior Writers is one of the largest and most active literary organizations in our area. We work to foster writing communities, provide an audience for literature, and further the artistic development of writers through workshops, readings, and publications.

Lake Superior Writers assumed responsibility for the Northeastern Minnesota Book Awards in 2020. More information is available on the NEMBA web pages on the main menu.

Operating support is made possible in part by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
