Join SPIT on Friday, August 31 at 6pm for an outdoor group writing session at Queen Elizabeth Park.

Writing will take place throughout the golden hour until the sun sets and the moon appears. We ask that you bring your own writing materials and surfaces. Some snacks and blankets will be provided, but we recommend bringing an extra layer to wear as it may cool down once the sun goes down.

Organized by SPIT on the occasion of the exhibition “It's difficult to put a painting in the mailbox: Toward new models of artists' publishing” currently on view until September 16 at Libby Leshgold Gallery and READ Books. This event is free and open to the public.
