826 Boston would like to thank everyone who helped make our first event a great success! At "FILL IN THE
_____ : An Evening of Literary & Musical Entertainment to Benefit 826 Boston," held May 23, 2007 at the Cloud Place, our Board of Directors and volunteer staff had the chance to meet many enthusiastic local writers, readers, and educators. Musician
Jake Brennan, recently a guest correspondent on Boston.com, provided the soundtrack for the evening while Julia Glass,
Tom Perrotta,
Heidi Pitlor, and Charles Coe read excerpts from their latest works. While the event rallied support for 826 Boston, guests also helped out our visiting authors by "filling in the blanks" of unfinished pieces. Can't wait for the next 826 Boston gathering? As Julia Glass now says, "time, time, and more David Hasselhoff" — keep checking back for information on upcoming events!
Many thanks to our sponsors Chez Henri, Hammondswood at Chestnut Hill, and Stephanie O'Connell at LitLounge Literary Productions.
