Author Talk – Art Coulson
November 15 @ 3:30 pm - 5:00 pm
Join us for a free author event at the Brainerd Public Library! Brainerd Public Library welcomes Minnesota author Art Coulson to discuss his new works for adults.
Coulson is a writer of Cherokee, English and Dutch descent. The 2023 McKnight Fellow in Children’s Literature, Art is the author of 20 books, graphic novels and plays for children, including the middle grade novel, Chasing Bigfoot (2022), the picture book, Look, Grandma! Ni, Elisi! (2021), and the forthcoming picture book, All the Stars in the Sky (Simon & Schuster, fall 2025). He is a teaching artist at the Loft Literary Center in Minneapolis and coordinates the Native Authors Program for All My Relations Arts.
Although he is known primarily for his books for young readers, Coulson’s next two writing projects will be his first novels for adults.
The reading in Brainerd is made possible by a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board. Art Coulson is a fiscal year 2024 recipient of a Creative Individuals grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board. This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
