Sheridan to host 2020 Hemingway Society conference
SHERIDAN — Earlier this week, the Hemingway Society announced from its conference in Paris it will hold its next biennial conference in Sheridan in 2020.
National Endowment for the Humanity’s Hemingway Grant project director John Sutton estimated the conference will draw 350 attendees from countries around the world. He said at the 2016 conference, which was held in Chicago, conference-goers traveled from nine different countries to attend.

Sutton said Sheridan’s main competition for the 2020 conference was Havana, Cuba.
