Get directions HERE.

LitPunch is your opportunity to learn about the Twin Cities literary community!

Join us June 19, 2013 at Amsterdam Bar in Saint Paul from 6–8 p.m. and connect with fellow bibliophiles. You’ll be given a “dance card” for the evening, and be challenged to get signatures from area editors, designers, writers, book reviewers, intern and volunteer coordinators, publicists, event coordinators, fundraisers, and others. You’ll then be eligible to win fabulous literary prizes from the sponsoring organizations. PLUS, the first 20 people who show up with a receipt from a local, independent bookstore will receive a free beer on us. Hope to see you there!

LitPunch is sponsored by Coffee House Press, Graywolf Press, The Loft Literary Center, Milkweed Editions, and Rain Taxi Review of Books.

Social/Brief: Big Joy

Walker Art Center
1750 Hennepin Avenue South, Minneapolis
Get directions HERE.

Express your hedonism in 20 seconds or less! In celebration of the film Big Joy: The Adventures of James Broughton, join some blissed-out writers in the Garden Café and compose short poetic snippets that relish all that’s good about life, love, sex, summer, and more. Don’t worry, our featured writers will help you fit your boundless glee into a small package. A bit later, you could be invited to read your brief reflection on the Walker Cinema stage before the screening.

Writing session: 6 - 7 pm, Garden Café
Reading session: 7pm, Cinema

Social/Brief is sponsored by The Walker Art Center and Rain Taxi Review of Books.
