The Southern Lit Alliance will launch a new series of programs labeled South Bound in January. These programs and events are socially oriented and will feature fundraisers, special interactive events, and outreach that extend beyond the usual So Lit calendar.
"Young-minded, engaging individuals will enjoy learning about and bonding over literature in its various forms through these programs," organizers said.
The first South Bound event is “Books & Brews,” a book swap event at Heaven & Ale on Tuesday, Jan.
13 at 6 p.m. Guests are asked to bring a copy of a book they have read to be swapped with that of another guest. Drinks will be available for purchase at Heaven & Ale. Guests should remember to bring a valid state ID for the purchase of alcohol.
“Books & Brews” is free and open to the public. Heaven & Ale is located at 304 Cherokee Blvd. on the North Shore. For more information on the Southern Lit Alliance, visit www.SouthernLitAlliance.org.
