Mission
Storied fosters a supportive environment for explorations of writing and literature, both classic and modern. Our meetings are dedicated to the appreciation of various forms of literature, including readings and experimentation with interpretation and style. We respond to weekly selections from a variety of genres, styles, periods, and forms in order to better establish a foothold in the contemporary postmodern period; these responses often take the form of interpretive adaptations and exploration through creation. We also offer monthly open mics for the sharing of new work and appreciation of canonical writers.
