Hats, beads, glitter!\u00a0It\u2019s a 1920\u2019s party with the added benefit of poetry.<\/p>\n

In Roaring 20’s fashion, teens shared their self-written poems under the spotlight. \u00a0The performers were teens from all over our community\u2014some from our own writing workshops and many from our local high schools. \u00a0With the help of many of our teen volunteers, we made room decorations and some accessories. \u00a0Everyone was invited to watch the performances; all performers were entered into a prize drawing of an embellished Great Gatsby journal and gift card.<\/p>\n
