Write Night Fall 2016

It was a celebration of writing in the Imperatore Library on Monday, November 14 during the 5th annual Fall Write Night. If you haven't been able to witness this event, it is a great chance for budding writers to share their work among students and faculty. The night begins in the library main space, where English Department Chair Fred Daly invites a few writers to read their pieces to the whole group. Then, all participants move to smaller breakout sessions where they get the opportunity to share with their peer groups. Lastly, the group comes together again in the main space to close out the evening with a few more presenters.

Some of the pieces shared may be included in our school literary magazines, Open Roads (middle school) and Calliope (upper school,) so look for those publications in the spring. Thank you to all participants for sharing your work!
