Pros(e) of Pie - September 8 - "THIS IS WHERE I LOST IT"

This month, Pros(e) of Pie is collaborating with the Hudson Valley Writers' Center and Totemic17 to bring you a very special multi-disciplinary event!

September's theme "THIS IS WHERE I LOST IT" will be interpreted in three art forms:

contemporary true storytelling
wood block prints
flash prose

Beautiful block prints from Totemic17 artist Tuukka Peltonen and flash prose submissions (200 words) on the theme will adorn the beautiful wood-panelled walls of the Writers' Center as you sit back to enjoy our storytellers sharing true personal tales.

AND YES, there will be a pie bake-off this month. Your admission includes tastes of 3 of the pie entries and a chance to vote for your favorite!

Doors - 7:30p; show starts at 8pm.

About the Theme:
This month, we’re sharing stories about that moment things don't go as planned. Do you remember that first time you lost it? Was it your temper? inhibition? mojo? sanity? religion? viriginity? house keys??? Literally or figuratively, we want to hear about that moment, what lead to it, and how things turned out.
