Beyond The Literary Reading: Performance as Possibility and Community #AWP26

Moving off the page and through the body, five multi-genre writers (Joss Barton, Ching-In Chen, Gabrielle Civil, Ali Gali, & yrs trly) activate possibilities for witness, solidarity, and transformation through performance. The panel celebrates performance as a vital leap from the public literary reading, a meeting of form and content that builds community through practices of ritual, generative discomfort, and care. Panelists within and outside the academy will share and discuss their work to provoke writers toward more expansive, liberatory creative practices.

  • Date: TBA - March 4–7, 2026
