Still wondering what to do tomorrow? Lectures and writing workshops among options

Now that you’ve had a chance to recover from yesterday’s “2nd most watched television event of all time,” why not start thinking about what you may want to do tomorrow… after voting (or getting your friends to) that is.

For those of our regular visitors of high school age, you’ve got a chance to take part in the Writing Today High School Workshop. It goes from 8:30 a.m. – 2:30 p.m. tomorrow (February 5) on the campus of Birmingham Southern College. The workshop will include sessions led by University of North Alabama professor and author Daryl Brown; Birmingham News reporter Victoria Coman; and UAB English professor Tina Harris, with a performance by spoken word artist Sharrif Simmons. It’s part of the upcoming 28th annual Writing Today conference on March 8 & 9.

Afterwards you can head on over to Vulcan Park tomorrow evening as their Collective Perspectives series in honor of Black History Month begins with The Women of Sloss Furnaces. A reception begins at 5 p.m. with the lecture starting at 6 p.m.
