Writers Place

I like this place. It's a lovely 3-story mansion in KC, right around the corner from the Uptown and all that. Side note: This place boasts what is probably my favorite bathtub in town. What? Why is that weird?I know of at least 3 reading series that happen here on a regular basis, but they host other readings and workshops, too.Riverfront Reading Series is second Fridays at 8pm. Main Street Rag is third Sundays at 7pm.Monday Open Mic is fourth Mondays at 8pm.The downstairs is really open and bright. Lovely hardwood floors and there's often local art on the walls. I think it's the second floor that has a small bookstore with lots of local writers' work. There are also offices here for the Latino Writer's Collective.It's a really lovely space with some good events. My only caveat (and maybe I'm wrong because I live more than a hop/skip/jump away) is I think they could use some work on how well they advertise some of their events.

Writers Place is a fantastic local business!! Natasha is a dynamic leader and highly educated in the arts. Go to their site and donate to a great cause.5 star spectacular! !!

I can't express enough how much I adore this castle. They have very cool events (open mics, writing workshops, discussion groups, readings, wine events, etc.,...) and very cool members. The environment at The Writer's Place is very welcoming, calm as well as encouraging.
