We are pleased to welcome local writers Roger Reeves, Chris Green, Adam McOmber, Laura Durnell, and Lana Rakhman as they read from their latest works.  This reading is sponsored by Fifth Wednesday Journal, a local group we are glad to introduce to our after-words customers.
Fifth Wednesday Journal is an independent literary print magazine published twice yearly by Fifth Wednesday Books, Inc., a nonprofit organization based in Lisle, Illinois. Committed to the idea that contemporary literary and photographic arts are essential components of a vibrant and enduring culture, they publish those writers and visual artists who most effectively contribute to this mission.
The unique range of writing and visual art in each issue appeals to a wide spectrum of readers, and their commitment is to publish writing and art that is both entertaining and intellectually meaningful.
Fifth Wednesday Journal is an independent non-profit 501(c)(3) publication partially supported by grants from the Illinois Arts Council and The MacArthur Fund for Arts and Culture at The Richard H. Driehaus Foundation.
