I was attending a holiday event tonight in Milwaukee, WI for Community Shares of Greater Milwaukee and someone told me a decision must be made soon. This is welcome and sad news. The place has so much character but I will visit the new place when I am back in Seattle.

Richard Hugo House Cafe Hugo, Hugo House's bar/cafe, now has its own Web page! Take a peek at the menu, which changes seasonally, and keeps tabs on what some staff (Brian McGuigan and Kate Lebo) say is the best part about working at Hugo House.

www.hugohouse.org
Café Hugo is a bar/café that is open during many Hugo House events. We love to keep it in the neighborhood, serving regional beers, Market Spice tea straight from the waterfront and coffee donated by Caffé Vita—so local we can smell the beans roasting from across Cal Anderson Park.

A marathon day of writing workshops at Richard Hugo House proves to be more than cross-genre stretching exercises. It also helps me discover, surprisingly, a theme that's been there all along.
