First Friday downtown celebrates the literary arts.
Statesboro Write Place (from FB page)
It started as a dream shared by Statesboro Magazine, Visit Statesboro, Averitt Center for the Arts, and Georgia Southern's Department of Writing & Linguistics. We partnered to promote Statesboro as the Write Place - a place where writers and authors gather for writing workshops and reading events - a town with three major libraries and three institutions of higher learning. We imagined Statesboro to be the birthplace of future Southern authors. An area rich in Southern mystique with a university that's home to the only Writing degree in the state of Georgia.
