Like reading? Are you the friend who decides to stay in on a Friday night, just so you can catch up on your latest book (because, really, who has time for actual reading during the academic week)? Well, Friday night put on your coat and head to Literati, a prime book-lover hangout and a local bookstore that is a must for anyone visiting/living in Ann Arbor. Set out into the night, among whatever weather the state of Michigan has decided to throw at you, and indulge in your love of reading at a party! The Oleander Review is releasing their latest issue in the Espresso Bar (above Literati) Friday night at 7 pm and artists will be reading from the issue.
The Oleander Review is an undergraduate run literary journal that publishes work- writing and art- from both students and established writers. It is a platform in which artists at various points in their careers meet and present their work. For more details about what Oleander is all about visit their website! For a full list of the readers at the Release Party visit their Facebook Event.
This party is FREE; I’ve even heard talk of refreshments. Copies of the journal are $5. You’ll get a chance to meet some of the people that produced the journal and some of artists it features. Hope to see all you book lovers there supporting your peers and celebrating how much we love art!
