Writers & Books and Rochester Love Notes are
excited to announce the official launch of a collaborative project, Words
on Walls, at a free public
event Thursday, June 19 from 8:30-10:00pm.
The Words
on Walls Summer Kick Off will
feature music, refreshments from Marty’s
Meats of Rochester, complementary beer, wine, and a spectacular projection
on the outer wall of Writers & Books’ historic brick building at 740 University Avenue in Rochester. The
projection is slated to run from
9:00pm-10:00pm.
In larger-than-life,
luminous words, an assortment of profound and colorful lines from the dozens of
entries to the Rochester Love Notes blog – a community-driven project aimed at
encouraging Rochester’s fans far and wide to proclaim their affection – will be
projected upon the exterior façade of Writers & Books, illuminating the
evening with a bright glow for all attendees (whom organizers hope will leave
feeling uplifted and inspired to contribute their own Rochester Love Notes).
The event
is dubbed the Words on Walls Summer Kick-Off because it marks the beginning
of a calendar of similar such happenings through October, including but not
limited to the popular Food Truck Rodeo at the Rochester Public Market and
Rochester Fashion Week. These announcements will be made at the kick-off.
To
see what Rochester Love Notes is all about, read some entries, and contribute
your own message of fondness for Rochester, visit www.rochesterlovenotes.blogspot.com. Email a Love Note at any
time to lovenotesrochester@gmail.com if you would like your note
to be considered for this event, or Tweet to @RocLoveNotes. In addition, learn
more about the event at the Writers & Books website at www.wab.org and follow them on Twitter
at @WritersandBooks.
What
more ostentatious way to tell Rochester that we are hopelessly devoted to her
than by projecting our love in big, bright letters upon one of her beautiful
buildings? Don’t miss this first-of-a-kind, free event in our community.
