Past 2021 Special Events
Zoom Open Mic Opportunities
Since we’re sure writing is on your to-do list, let’s encourage each other at open mic. This is a chance to share with your fellow writers all types of artistry, be it nonfiction, fiction, or poetry. Music is welcome too, if you wish to share a song you’ve written. Open mic will be from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. via Zoom, and a Zoom access link will be emailed in advance of each date. Mark your calendar. We can’t wait to hear what you’ve been working on!
