Writers’ Open Studio Cafe Hours
Settle in and write as we transform the studio into a small, cozy café for a few hours each week.
Enjoy café hours at BARN's Writers Studio, complete with music, tea, and coffee.
Bring your laptop or notebook and soak up the café atmosphere so conducive to writing. You can expect music, white noise, or maybe lively chatter.
You're welcome to bring a small snack to share, if you'd like.
