A Community Reading Series
2016
Wednesday April 13, 2016
4pm–5:30pm
Battelle Atrium
This year we’ve lost some of our favorite writers and artists: Harper Lee, David Bowie, Melissa Mathison, E.L. Doctorow, Anita Brookner, Yuko Tsushima, Umberto Eco, Mavis Gallant, Julian Bond, Rosario Ferré…
This event will be a celebration of these writers, and it will largely be shaped by your desire to join in. Come and read from the work of a writer whom you admire and whom we’ve lost in the last year or so. Poets, prose writers, musicians — anyone who put pen to paper who was important to you.
Each person will be allotted 5 minutes to read. Of course, if you’d rather simply come to listen and not read, we’d love to have you, too.
Drop in or stay with us for the entire reading — food and beverages provided.
