WordForward:  Adaptation

Hosted by Flaco Navaja

Tell a story, perform a poem, spin a yarn, impress the audience and make it to the end of this fun and exciting competition for word lovers!

Performers:  We only have room for 10 performers, so come at 2:30 to register.  First come, first to perform.

The audience chooses the winner.  (Bring a crowd; it helps!)

Writers, poets and storytellers perform a prepared piece of no more than 3 minutes.  Finalists get to write and perform a flash piece, vying for the prize of WordForward Champion.  The Bronx Writers Center, a program of the Bronx Council on the Arts, hosts this entertaining event, as part of its Big Read in the Bronx. 

This is an event of the Bronx Council on the Arts' Big Read.  Special thanks to our partner, the Westchester Square Branch of the New York Public Library,

The Big Read is an initiative of the National Endowment for the Arts in partnership with the Institute of Museum and Library Services and Arts Midwest. For more information,visit www.neabigread.org.
