Faulkner for All! embraces multiple disciplines and target audiences and it is our annual attempt to create the same kind of nurturing environment that enabled William Faulkner to progress from struggling poet to America’s best known novelist. The Faulkner Society was founded in memory of Nobel Laureate William Faulkner, who arrived in New Orleans in 1925 after suffering ridicule as “Count No-Count” in his native Oxford, MS. We assemble appreciative audiences for both established and developing artists during a long weekend of enlightening and entertaining programming for readers and writers of all ages.
