Bringing literature to life has been the focus of the Huntsville Literary Association (HLA) since 1967. HLA sponsors, often in partnership with other organizations, a spectrum of literary activities and events for anyone who delights in books, poems, and plays.


HLA is an all volunteer, non-profit organization with hundreds of members from the North Alabama area.
Annual dues and grants are the primary source of income for HLA’s successful programs.
