Offerings

Northampton Literary Society has you covered with two distinct offerings. Enjoy any/all of our offerings to the writing community!

Weekly Meet-ups

Join us down in the Forbes Library Community Room on Thursday nights for some light socializing, generative writing time and low-stakes sharing! We warmly welcome writers of all genres and levels of experience.

Seasonal Open Mics

Four times a year, we are hosted by Amber Lane Cafe & Pub in Northampton for an intimate open mic. Come to read or come to listen! These run 6-8pm and sign-ups start at 530pm. Poetry and prose are welcome!

Voices

Aaron P.

“My favorite thing about this group is that no one is there to dominate or hear themselves talk.”

Diane S.

“The open forum and friendly critique at the meet-ups are very helpful and promote personal creativity.”

Kayleigh M.

“I’ve called our group a ‘glorified grief circle’ because it’s truly a safe space to write about whatever ails you. Most members join after some kind of loss, and I think that’s a beautiful thing.”
