On July 18 and 19, creative meetings with writers will be traditionally held in Barnaul (Shishkovka), Biysk (in the Shukshin Central State Library), Belokurikha and Srostki. For the first time, the events of the Literary Crossroads will be organized in Pavlovsk (inter-settlement library), Bystry Istok (at the Zolotukhin Memorial Complex) and Novoaltaysk (at the city library).
