The Food of Love - Festival Kick Off!

If you have been paying attention, you will have noticed that (a) the festival starts on Thursday, April 21; and (b) you have no idea what is happening on that opening day.

That’s because we haven’t told you yet.

So here’s the skinny: on Thursday we’ll be celebrating the festival’s return to in-person events with a series of fun and informal super-quick readings, all on the subject of… music. Appropriately, this event will be at the historic Blind Boone Home in the District. There will be food, drink, readings, and live music. And it’s all free.

The event starts at 7:00 p.m. Since space is limited, registration is required ahead of time: go here to reserve your ticket. Hurry - we anticipate tickets will go VERY quickly.

We have a wonderful roster of writers who have written something special for the occasion, including:

Augusta Cooper (who will also be providing live music)
