LitFest in the Dena takes place at the historic and monumental setting of Mountain View Mausoleum, located at 2300 N. Marengo Avenue in Altadena, CA. Please note: google this address, as sometimes the cemetery will come up, which is at a different address. Make sure you are going to the Marengo location!
There are multiple spots within the Mausoleum for our panels, workshops and readings. Authors and visitors to the festival will be directed by ushers to their specific locations.
