Get Lit #44

Heading into its fourth consecutive year, Get Lit is a community gathering of 12–15 writers reading NEVER-BEFORE-READ material (rough drafts / debuts) within a three-minute time limit. There is live music at every show, beer made by Ale Industries on site, and wonderful food by Guadalajara Restaurant & Tequila Bar just down the block. All ages are welcome.

Doors open at 7:00 PM; show starts at 7:30 PM SHARP!

Safe Space Statement

Nomadic Press events are safe spaces for those who have been silenced and marginalized. There is no room for racism, misogyny, homophobia, or transphobia whether in the content of one’s reading or in one’s interactions with members of the community. We will protect the safety of this space by revoking a reader’s access to the microphone if we feel they have violated these guidelines, and we encourage community members to come to us if someone has violated these guidelines away from the microphone. We are a community, and we will work together to ensure that the safety of our most vulnerable members is prioritized above all else.

Get beer. Get lit. Then get tacos.
