On Wednesday, February 24 at 7:00 p.m. the Festival of Words will host Pieces Of Hope Virtual Open Mic on Zoom. For sixteen years, the festival has hosted the Grand Coteau based event featuring writers, musicians and storytellers.

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the creative community will gather online. Coming together is an act of hope; come to share or just to listen and enjoy. The two-hour open mic presents twenty writers and musicians, each performing for five minutes. Performers are from Lafayette, and all over the country.

To join, go to the Facebook page for "Pieces Of Hope Virtual Open Mic [Notes:facebook.com] ." The link to the Zoom Café will be available the week of the event. Or, contact Martha at fowmartha@gmail.com or 337-804-2482.

The free, community event is suitable for all ages and is sponsored by the Festival of Words Cultural Arts Collective.
