Guests are encouraged to choose their own adventure as they wander from venue to venue enjoying the works of local playwrights, poets and novelists, which include faculty and staff of FSCJ. Attendees are invited to end the evening by connecting with featured writers at the after party in Jacksonville’s CoRK Arts District.
