Pronouns: she/her
As the Programs for Writers Coordinator at Literary Arts, Alexa Winik (she/her) helps support the daily operations of programming and events focused on writers, from writing classes to Delve seminars to the Oregon Book Awards. She holds an MFA in Creative Writing from the University of St Andrews and is the author of the poetry chapbook Close River, published by Magma in 2021. Her writing has been published in various places—including The Poetry Review, Gutter, The Ampersand, The Adroit Journal, Footprints: An Anthology of New Ecopoetry (Broken Sleep Books), and elsewhere—and has been supported by The At Sea Writers’ Residency, Willapa Bay AiR, and the Writers’ Trust of Canada. In 2020, her hybrid poetry sequence ‘Winter Stars Visible in December’ won the RBC Bronwen Wallace Award for Emerging Writers. A former bookseller, she loves hearing stories about the books that changed people’s lives, which for her might include (non-exhaustively) Dionne Brand’s The Blue Clerk, Simone Weil’s Gravity & Grace, and Diane di Prima’s Revolutionary Letters.
Our events, classes, and seminars bring the community together to hear, learn, and discuss the most compelling issues and ideas of our day. We hope you will join us in our downtown Literary Arts space, online, and at partnering venues across Portland and Oregon.
