This week we’re changing gears at Hugh Embry! Instead of having the second half of the Graphic Novel workshop, we’re doing an open mic and café night. Want snacks? How about café food? And … we’ll have fun too! Bring your music (if you have a guitar, bring that too). Bring your stories (scary or otherwise). Bring your poems (even a poetry slam). Bring your songs and your jokes (if you have any). We’ll have a karaoke machine ready at the quick! Anything you can do on a mic, you’ll have that chance on Wednesday!

Oh! And if you don’t want to stand in front of the mic, we’ll have tablecloths of craft paper so you can draw, paint or whatever you want to do. Note: Last week our teens made books during our Summer Reading Club program. Some were graphic novels, while others were just words on paper. Still, others were just pictures. The teens did SO GOOD they finished their books early. Their books even had a cover. Too Cool!!! If you didn’t get your chance to make this book, come on Wednesday @ 6 p.m. We’ll set you up, while listening to the other teens on the mic.
