New Kids on the Block: A Beginner-Friendly Reading and Open Mic

Join us for a beginner-friendly reading and open mic night welcoming new voices into the translation ecosystem, hosted by the University of Arkansas’s MFA Program in Creative Writing and Translation! Our lineup of featured readers will be followed by an open mic for drop-in readings of five minutes or less. We especially encourage folks newer to translation, those who have never read their work before, or those bringing work in earlier stages of the translation process to join us! Free and open to all; food and drinks available for purchase.
