The Off Hours
Summer Reading

The Off Hours reading series provides a space for writers with ties to the Seattle area to share new work. As its title suggests, the series is meant to embody the spirit of writers in the Off Hours, after a creative project has been fully realized, and the party ensues. Held quarterly, the readings are boozy, lively and have a celebratory feel.
