To celebrate Vouched Atlanta’s first year of existence this July, VOUCHED PRESENTS: A Very Vouched Birthday! On Wednesday, July 18th will be a gathering of a great number of Atlanta’s literary champions at the Goat Farm Arts Center to celebrate one of VOUCHED PRESENTS favorite causes: tomorrow’s writers. How will we do this? By turning the party into a fundraiser for WINK and the Wren’s Nest Publishing Co.! Imagine a collection of  Atlanta’s best authors reading the work of the children who benefit from these two outstanding literary organizations.

Our readers include:

  • Blake Butler
  • Jamie Iredell
  • Jessie Matheson
  • Jayne O’Connor
  • Nicholas Tecosky
  • Amelia Lerner
  • Lain Shakespeare
  • Jamie Allen
  • Randy Osborne
  • Myke Johns
  • Katy Black
  • Johnny Drago
  • Laura Carter
  • Davy Minor
  • Gina Myers
  • Matt DeBenedictis
  • Terra Elan McVoy
  • Jenny Sadre-Orafai
  •  Amy McDaniel



Each Atlanta author will be paired with a piece written by one of the tutored student writers from WINK and the Wren’s Nest Publishing Company. These pairings will be made by Vouched Atlanta and members of WINK and KIPP SCRIBES (a program of The Wren’s Nest outreach programming). Each reading will only be 1-2 minutes in length, with breaks intermittently between readers for raffle give-a-way’s from our sponsors. Participants will receive 1 raffle ticket for each $5 donated or spent on Vouched, Wren’s Nest, or Wink goods! 



Our current sponsors include: The Goat Farm Arts Center, BANG! Arts, HydeATL, Write Club Atlanta, Scoutmob, Creative Loafing, Purge Atlanta, and Smilebooth. More sponsors and raffle gifts will be announced as the date approaches.
