The Mercy Street ReaDings

We’re back.

Join us on Sunday, January 12, 2025 from 3pm-4:30pm Eastern via Zoom. More details coming soon.

Mercy Street Readings was founded in 2021 to showcase poets and writers from Chicago and beyond.
We introduced audiences to over 100 artists worldwide—attendees from 12 countries and 39 States.
We transitioned into a federally and state-registered literary arts nonprofit organization, EIN 92-3380888, in 2023.
Consider making a tax-deductible donation or setting up a scholarship in our name.
Mercy Street is a literary arts not-for-profit organization that promotes literature and fosters a diverse and welcoming community for writers and readers.
