Lounges
Beginning in September, our new "Sunday at the Studio" programming kicks in for
the 2010-11 season. We'll offer the Literary Lounge on the first Sunday of
every month, along with the popular Acoustic Lounge on the third Sunday.
The Literary Lounge
 The Literary
Lounge is now sponsored by the Creative Writing Department at Hollins
University. Each month we'll showcase featured writers of various genres
and also provide opportunities for emerging writers to share their work in a non-competitive,
supportive environment. All work must be original and, for non-featured writers, no more than five
minutes long. The goal is to bring
writers and listeners together in a community that is enthusiastic about sharing
the written and spoken word. For details on upcoming presentations,

The Acoustic Lounge
with Chris Shepard
Chris Shepard,
one of Roanoke's most exciting and best liked singer/songwriters, hosts this
monthly showcase of local acoustic music. In the first hour we have four featured talents who will each do a 15-minute set of their own original music. After a brief intermission there will be a round-robin sign up for up to ten other local bards to each do a single song. Afterwards we relax and
 converse, and sometimes even engage in a free form jam session. With that many musicians in the same room, how could you not have a wonderful time?
