Author Reading Night at the Jitterbug Cafe

Wednesday, June 21, 2017

5:15 – 9:00 p.m. Jitterbug Cafe, 35 Main Street North, Waterdown, Ontario (Map here.)

This is the night that graduates of Brian Henry’s writing classes strut their stuff. We’ll have a line-up of the most amazing emerging writers west of Toronto, and they’ll be reading some of the best work you’ll hear this year. This will be a wonderful evening and everyone’s invited Don’t miss it!

Arrive for dinner by 5:30, or if you’re just having a drink or coffee and a snack, please arrive by 6:00. But because they’re opening especially for us, you can’t order just a coffee (or they’ll lose money by hosting us). They have a great menu; check it out here.

The actual readings will start at about 6:30. I look forward to seeing you all there! ~Brian
