Writers’ Night of Adventure is a celebration of adventure stories that showcases the original written works of Adult and High School Teen patrons. Interested patrons may submit an adventure-themed flash-fiction (700 words maximum), micro-fiction, poetry, or a 5 minute play to present at the program.

Not a fan of presentations or writing but love all-things adventure and exploration? Not a problem! You can still register and attend to listen to the stories.

Dress your best! Come and mingle with others in explorer attire.

This program is intended for Adults and High School Teens only. Registration is required.
