LITERARTY PARTY Recap!

Many thanks to everyone who came to the Literarty Party last Sunday!

Much gratitude to our partner-in-crime, Jon at Ad Hoc Art Mpls, our featured writers Rob Callahan and Courntey Algeo, and the fab jazz trio Back Pocket Hymnal!

Extra-special props to our open mic readers: Erin Boylan, Dylan Hester, Timothy Otte, Jeremy Benson, Derek Larson, and Nathan Young.

Besides the Open Mic and frozen treats, we had a Twitter contest (little Hazel & Wren ladies were hidden all over the galleries for people to find and tweet their photo), and “Liter-arty Walls” that were set up throughout the galleries, upon which people posted titles, sentences, or poems inspired by the art nearby. They were so great that we’re sharing a bunch of them below (scroll down past the photos). Thanks, everyone, for a fun Sunday evening!

Also check out a recap of the event by our friends at LitSeen: Literarty Party: An Open Mic
