SUMMARY:OWL: Oakland Writers' and Literature
DESCRIPTION:The Oakland Writers’ & Literature (OWL) Club is a group of 18 years and older writing enthusiasts\, tackling a common feeling among writers: the need for some encouragement to write. The focus of OWL is to provide a community for writers to share and workshop their own work\, and sometimes the work of published authors. The group uses tools of analysis to identify the literal meanings and themes of all genres of writing\, while also discussing the things that most stand out in the work. \nThe OWL club meets Wednesdays at 6:30 at the Main (Oakland) Library\, and is an open community where writers can pop in and pop out from week to week and always feel included and welcome when they return. \nWritings/readings are scheduled in advance of meetings using OWL’s community sign-up sheet. The OWL mailing list* is used for distributing this work. Meetings also include weekly writing prompts that attendees are encouraged (though not required) to read and share with the group. \nThe club’s weekly agenda is as follows: \n\n6:30 – 6:45 PM      Quiet time writing for the prompt \n6:45 – 7:15 PM      Reading and sharing prompt writing(s)\n7:15 – 8:00 PM      Group discussion and peer review/workshop of writers’ work\n\n*Contact Roland at 2300degrees@gmail.com to be added to the OWL mailing list. \nOWL is neither an LLC\, a non-profit\, nor a for-profit organization. The group is not endorsed or sponsored by any organization and operates as a cost-free community of writers for anyone over 18 to join. \nDisclaimer: The library makes every effort to ensure our programs can be enjoyed by all.

SUMMARY:OWL: Oakland Writers' and Literature
DESCRIPTION:The Oakland Writers’ & Literature (OWL) Club is a group of 18 years and older writing enthusiasts\, tackling a common feeling among writers: the need for some encouragement to write. The focus of OWL is to provide a community for writers to share and workshop their own work\, and sometimes the work of published authors. The group uses tools of analysis to identify the literal meanings and themes of all genres of writing\, while also discussing the things that most stand out in the work. \nThe OWL club meets Wednesdays at 6:30 at the Main (Oakland) Library\, and is an open community where writers can pop in and pop out from week to week and always feel included and welcome when they return. \nWritings/readings are scheduled in advance of meetings using OWL’s community sign-up sheet. The OWL mailing list* is used for distributing this work. Meetings also include weekly writing prompts that attendees are encouraged (though not required) to read and share with the group. \nThe club’s weekly agenda is as follows: \n\n6:30 – 6:45 PM      Quiet time writing for the prompt \n6:45 – 7:15 PM      Reading and sharing prompt writing(s)\n7:15 – 8:00 PM      Group discussion and peer review/workshop of writers’ work\n\n*Contact Roland at 2300degrees@gmail.com to be added to the OWL mailing list. \nOWL is neither an LLC\, a non-profit\, nor a for-profit organization. The group is not endorsed or sponsored by any organization and operates as a cost-free community of writers for anyone over 18 to join. \nDisclaimer: The library makes every effort to ensure our programs can be enjoyed by all.

SUMMARY:One Maryland One Book Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Please join us as we discuss the 2026 One Maryland No Sense in Wishing: Essays on Black Music\, Belonging\, and Baltimore by Lawrence Burney. \n“A personal and analytical essay collection from culture critic Lawrence Burney that is a personal and analytical look at his home city of Baltimore\, music from throughout the global Black diaspora\, and the traditions that raised him. \nThere are moments in our lives when we discover an artist\, an album\, a film\, or a cultural artifact that leaves a lasting impression. These moments inform how we understand the world\, and ourselves\, moving forward. \nIn a time when music is spurring Black Americans’ connection with Africans on the Continent\, culture critic Lawrence Burney takes us on a journey from the streets of Baltimore to the concert halls of Lagos\, reminisces on seeing his mother perform as the opening act of a Gil Scott-Heron show when he was a child\, and sits at a Maryland crab feast with family\, assessing how the Black people in his home state have historically improvised paths for their liberation. Burney explores these profound interactions with incisive and energizing prose\, offering us a personal and critical perspective on the people\, places\, music\, and art that transformed him. \nNo Sense in Wishing is a kaleidoscopic exploration of Burney’s search for self. With its gutsy and uncompromising criticism alongside intimate personal storytelling\, this “powerful collection of essays” (Rolling Stone) is like an album that hits all the right notes\, from a promising writer on the rise.” \nDisclaimer: Programs\, events\, and classes may be photographed or videotaped for library promotional purposes.
