The Foundation for Light Verse will be presenting Wordplay Workshops in a local juvenile detention center, with kids ages 14 to 17. We have great program they should enjoy but we are open to further suggestions to add to our humorous wordy mix.

Light Quarterly staff will be at the Printer's Row Lit Fest in Chicago on Sunday June 13th, 2 to 6pm. Look for us under the CWA tent (Chicago Writers Association) at the corner of Polk and Clark Streets, near the West Gate. Free samples, anyone?

Volunteering for the volunteers! We did a reading of light verse, with a musical interlude, for the folks at the Oak Leyden Center for the Developmentally Disabled this past Wednesday. The musical portion of the event was provided by the illustrious and rambunctious young violinist at LQHQ playing J S Bach's Gavotte BWV1012 and Concerto in A min by Vivaldi, 2nd mvt. A good time was had by all.

Light Quarterly is rolling toward getting out our next issue! As the Operations person, I have to say it is our BEST looking issue yet :) At this point a couple of more weeks and it will be in mailboxes!

The Foundation is currently working on a series of workshops aimed at primary school children. One of the programs will focus on using light verse to make memorization fun, and another will feature imaginative wordplay. We welcome your ideas or suggestions! Stay tuned for more information as it becomes available.
