Better Things 5x5 Reading + Open Mic (July 1)

Please join us on Tuesday, July 1st, at 7:00pm, at Moon Palace Books, for our next 5×5 Reading, featuring five fantastic writers: Anthony Ceballos, Kyle "Guante" Tran Myhre, Taiwana Shambley, Barbara Currin, and Jeannine Ouellette.

Each reader will take five minutes to share work; after the main reading, there will be a short break for refreshments, followed by an open mic period. All are welcome to show up and to participate in the open mic! (List is first come, first serve.) This reading, and the open mic afterward, will be hosted by Davi Gray, Erin Sharkey, and Louise Waakaa'igan.

Light refreshments will be served; masks are required at Moon Palace Books and are available on-site. This is a free event, and for the first time, we've added ASL interpretation! (This will be an ongoing feature of our 5x5 readings.)

Better Things is a series of events sponsored by the ReEntry Lab, in partnership with the Minnesota Prison Writing Workshop (MPWW) and Moon Palace Books; the ReEntry Lab is an organization working to connect writers and other artists leaving incarceration to a community that’s ready to receive them.
