Join the 2025 LitFest in the Dena themed "Books that Teach Us About Character". LitFest 2025 will take place at Mountain View Mausoleum in Altadena. "What can books teach us about character? The people in literary works face moral dilemmas—choosing between personal gain and doing the right thing, whatever the consequences. Fictional heroes often explore the boundaries of character, asking us which traits we deem noble. The same choices and internal struggles appear in nonfiction works such as biographies or histories, deepened by the impact of character on the real world. Looking at character in books helps us stay true to our values, even in the most threatening of circumstances. By immersing ourselves in the stories of others—be they true or imagined—we develop a stronger moral compass and a deeper understanding of how to live with character." LitFest in the Dena presents 2 days of panel discussions, readings, workshops, and interactive literary experiences from 12:30pm to 6:00pm each day. Submissions are OPEN.
