Looking Under the Hood of the Writing Process II

Looking Under The Hood Of The Writing Process

For the past several years Westbury Arts has presented Westbury's Got Talent, an open-mic showcase that allows artists ranging from singers, poets, comedians, and performers of the spoken word to share with the community their gifts for communication in its various forms. Looking Under The Hood of The Writing Process, on April 19, 2026 from 2:00PM to 3:30PM, will ask, and answer, the process questions of "how," "why," and "what" these writers did to bring their ideas from their minds, through their fingers, and onto the page and stage. It will also give the audience a taste from the presenters' finished products. The panelists for the program are Kathleen Bart (children's books author and illustrator)Paula Curci (poet, Nassau County Poet Laurete 2022-2024); Shirley Darkeh (curator, artist, poet), Jay Stuart (grphic novelist).

Audience members will have the opportunity to ask questions as they themselves consider whether being part of what's under the hood of the writing process is someplace they'd like to be, too.

Westbury Arts programs are made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the office of the governor and the New York State Legislature.
