Started in 2005, the Omaha Lit Fest is two days of tours, writers in conversation, book buying, and a literary happy hour. In addition to Nebraska authors, the fest has hosted novelists, short-story writers, nonfiction writers, and poets from New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, and beyond. The Omaha World-Herald cited it as "another strong indication of Omaha's continuous cultural growth and expansion of diverse activities."
