Join us for a super special Shut Up and Write in Los Feliz! This will be our opening party with a welcome from LA Poet Laureate Brian Sonia-Wallace & other surprises. _________________ Since October, we’ve been hosting weekly writing accountability groups in Los Feliz. We check-in, put a timer on for one hour, and then silently write for! It’s beautiful! One hour of time after your day job to focus on whatever you want to work on, no judgement. If you want to read, respond to texts, or do life admin - do it. It’s your time to do what you need to do. We’re making this our opening party! There will be opening remarks from the Festival organizer Sammy Ginsberg and our very own LA Poet Laureate Brian Sonia-Wallace. After we write, an optional collaborative writing game to get to know each other as we embark on our five-day festival experience. The beauty of festivals is they create a micro-culture for a few precious days. Our hope is to continue this inclusive culture throughout the year at our weekly writing groups and events in the neighborhood! If you are interested in attending one of our writing groups, you're more than welcome to! Mondays 6:45pm to 8:15pm at Sidewalk Grill Wednesdays 6:45pm to 8:15pm at Big Bar Alcove Please support the local business hosting us by purchasing something as that's why our event is FREE <3 _______ Check out the full schedule of events! We have 14 events taking place August 19-23 all over Los Feliz!! This event is 1 out of 14!
