2007-08 WITS Anthology, Dive Down Into the Loud, Launches September 24
Event is FREE September 24 7:00pm Bertha Knight Landes room at Seattle's City Hall 600 4th Ave. Seattle, 98104	What is it like being a kid in today's fast-paced world? It is like "having the whole alphabet inside your stomach," according to Isabella Smith, a student at Maple Elementary School and participant in Seattle Arts & Lectures' Writers in the Schools (WITS) program. During the 2007-08 school year, Smith worked with WITS writer-in-residence Fredda Jaffe, polishing her writing skills and learning how to express herself. This hard work has earned her poem a spot in this year's WITS anthology, Dive Down into the Loud. Join us Wednesday, September 24, at 7PM, as Smith, and other students like her from 24 schools in Seattle, Highline, and Tukwila, read their work and sign books. This free event, co-hosted by WITS and the Seattle Mayor's Office of Arts & Cultural Affairs, takes place in the Bertha Knight Landes room at Seattle's City Hall. Contact WITS Manager Elizabeth Ames Staudt, elizabeth@lectures.org, 206-621-2230 x13, for more information. WITS on Display at City Hall The book launch coincides with a display of student work at City Hall. Along with student poems, stories, and essays from the anthology, the exhibit features photographs of WITS students and teachers taken by local photographers Libby Lewis and Susie Fitzhugh. The display is located in the City Hall Lobby Gallery on the first floor and the Anne Focke Gallery on the L2 level of City Hall.
