The Tufts Cove Writers' Collective
Named after Dartmouth's iconic smokestacks, the Tufts Cove Writers' Collective (TCWC) provides feedback and support to members as they develop their craft. We began as a group of socially distanced strangers gathering in backyards during the height of the pandemic, to a close-knit group of friends and writing peers.
Dart Speak
Dart Speak is a volunteer-run, pay-what-you-can writers' open mic hosted by the TCWC and the Dart Gallery in downtown Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada.
It's an inclusive, welcoming space for new, emerging, and established writers to gather with fellow writers and readers, share their work, and gain important skills for their careers. The venue is accessible (other than two stairs to get to the washroom).
Dart Speak will be held the first Thursday of every month until June 2023, at which time the schedule will be re-assessed. Find out more on the Dart Speak Facebook page.
