First Mondays invites our communities to experience readings of un-published works and works in progress by an intergenerational group of vanguard writers. This season we continue to gather over free drinks in our theaters to hear writers discuss what’s on their mind and get a glimpse of the future of literature.  
 
This fall returns with three new events: The Snow Queen, a new musical composed and directed by Dudley Saunders (October 7); The Art of Precision and Imagination with Jason England, Lauren Michelle Jackson, and Caryl Phillips ( November 4); and Icons with Gary Indiana, Robert Reid-Pharr, and Lynne Tillman (December 2). 
 
For more than 5 years, First Mondays has brought readers and writers together to celebrate the written word from diverse perspectives and genres, all for free.
