We do not write in isolation. The personal stories we tell can impact our community and add to the connected-ness of a wider society. In this guided writing session, discussion and Q&A, learn the story behind the stories of Writing Our Way Out, and of how the simple act of picking up a pen and putting down words can effect social change.

About Literary Salons
James River Writers and The Poe Museum present
A new place to find inspiration this year
We’re bringing back the grand tradition of the literary salon, an intimate setting to meet & fraternize with local authors and artists, as they in turn guide you in your own writing practice. Whatever your genre, this is a great way to connect, to learn, and to philosophize.
Salons are organized by topic and are held on the second Thursday of every other month, February, April, June, August, and October. There is no cover charge for these events. We welcome writerly types of all experience levels and readers, thinkers, and artists of every sort. Be sure to bring your favorite writing implements.
