Brain Candy #75 continues a long-running monthly gathering devoted to shared creative experience, bringing together prose, poetry, music, and visual art in a setting that values curiosity over spectacle. It’s an evening designed to slow things down a notch—where listening matters, discovery is encouraged, and the work gets room to breathe.

This month’s program is beginning to take shape, with poet Tommye Blount and prose writer Sylvia Hubbard confirmed to take the stage. Additional performances are still being finalized, with music by This Life. We Lead and visual art by Kaleigh Blevins currently slated as tentative contributors. As always, Brain Candy thrives on the mix—voices and forms intersecting in ways that can’t quite be planned, only experienced.

Brain Candy takes place at Green Brain Comics, a space built for gathering as much as browsing. We stay open late for the event, with free parking available in both the front and rear lots, so getting here—and settling in—is easy. Whether you come for the art, the conversation, or just to be around other people who value stories and creativity, Brain Candy is a reminder of what a true third space can be.

Brain Candy is free to attend, with support for the artists encouraged, and is organized with help from the Daniel E. Wickett Legacy Committee, honoring the enduring influence of co-creator Dan Wickett and his commitment to building meaningful literary community.
