Litquake hasn’t become the West Coast’s most daring, innovative, and exciting literary festival on its own. Individuals like you have helped us grow and prosper – and helped keep more than 80% of our events free to the public, from our one-of-a-kind Lit Crawl to our year-round Epicenter series to our in-school author events for San Francisco schoolchildren.
