Thank you for your interest in volunteering for a Redbud class reading!

Some need-to-knows:

• Each reader will have five minutes. We won't be timing you, but advise that you practice beforehand to make sure you stay within your allotted time. If we notice you are going way over, we will discreetly signal you that time has run out.

• You don't have to read something you wrote for your Redbud class (nor do you have to share it with us ahead of time) although your instructors would be quite proud if you did read something from the class that you took. :) When it is your turn to read, please introduce yourself by saying your name and what class you took.

• The event is free and open to the public, so invite your friends and family!

Some reading tips:

• Make sure you don't read too fast;

• If you aren't sure what to pick, something funny or with dialogue is usually a hit;

• You may want to print out what you will be reading in a large font size so it's easy to read;

• If you are reading an excerpt from a larger work, you can give some context to the work with a quick introduction

Please fill out the form below. Note that we usually cap readings at 8 people. While we choose readers on a first come, first serve basis, we do prioritize those who haven't participated in one of our readings before.

After you’ve submitted your name and email, we’ll be in touch about whether you’ve been chosen to be one of our readers.
