Our 3rd Annual Agates IndyBookStore Tour
To promote Agates and the League of Minnesota Poets, we have over 60 poets reading on this 3rd Annual Agates IndyBookStore Tour in independent bookstores throughout Minnesota.
Target towns for the tour include, but are not limited to: Duluth, Bemidji, Moorhead, Alexandria, St. Cloud, Mankato, Rochester, Winona, Brainerd, Austin, Red Wing, Buffalo, Perham, Grand Marais, and the Twin Cities.
All Agates readers on this tour will also have the opportunity to read from and sell their own books. Poets in the 2025 Agates will be given priority, but any League member poet is invited to read in this tour.
If you’d like to read at an independent bookstore, please click the button below to sign up. After that, you will be contacted through the League of Minnesota Poets Press Gmail account and kept abreast of upcoming readings that you will sign up for, if you’re available to do them.
