Homerathon 2025

A Marathon Reading of Homer’s Odyssey Two days. One epic journey

Experience Homer’s Odyssey read aloud in community, and across languages.

Join us as we bring Homer’s timeless tale to life, read aloud, from beginning to end. Experience the adventures of Odysseus the way they were meant to be heard: in community, across languages, and in celebration of cultural storytelling.

Together, we celebrate the Odyssey’s enduring voice across cultures.

This year’s Homerathon is a featured event of the Chicago Cultural Alliance’s Journey Chicago. Through our collaboration with Greek schools and cultural organizations, we will feature select readings in Greek, Spanish, Czech, German, and Polish.
