The Key West Literary Seminar is a writers' conference and festival held each January in Key West, Florida. It draws an international audience for readings, panel discussions, and workshops.
History
The Seminar's history dates to 1983, when writers began gathering in the small tropical town that had been home to Ernest Hemingway, Tennessee Williams, Robert Frost, Wallace Stevens, Ralph Ellison, Richard Wilbur, John Ciardi, John Dos Passos, and Elizabeth Bishop. Activities are centered at the San Carlos Institute, a historic 19th-century building owned by the Government of Cuba. The seminar begins each year with the John Hersey Memorial Address and also features a series of receptions.
