Not A Salon is a monthly reading series open to writers of all genres, styles and experience levels.

Poetry, prose, short theatrical monologues - this is a space to share creativity, working under the philosophy that the best art is fuelled by curiosity and exploration.

Slots are 5 minutes or less.

Not A Salon is on every last Thursday of the month from 8-10pm in the backroom of Rufus T Firefly.

This month is a Back to School Special!

Were you a Tumblr girly?

A LiveJournal bard?

Do you have notebooks stuffed with melodramatic teenage angst?

Bring them to Not A Salon: Back to School Night

I’ll be bringing my greatest hits from circa 2007 to share. Participation in mutual public shame is not mandatory, but is highly encouraged. Let’s kick school year 2026/27 off right, with Cringe.
