Scholarship

Inspired by Helen Mounts, the Literary League Scholarship was established in 1987 at then High Point College by members of the High Point Literary League. The scholarship recognizes excellence in creative writing and literary areas of study.

Membership

High Point Literary League welcomes Triad residents who share the League’s passion for reading and literary excellence. Members are invited to two luncheons annually that feature nationally renowned authors, and members may bring guests to these events.

History

The High Point Literary League formed in 1981 when 17 local book clubs teamed up to charter an organization that would “sponsor an annual luncheon featuring nationally known authors.”
