Writers' Night of Light

Writers’ Night of Light is a celebration of Charles Dickens that showcases the original written works of Adult patrons. Interested patrons may submit 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 listening to stories? Not a problem! You can still register and attend to listen.

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

This program is intended for Adults only. Registration is required.
