We in English like to gather over words. 

Three of our regularly scheduled series of events include the Wordfest visiting writers series, the Books and Coffee series of reviews of books on the New York Times bestseller list, and, most recently, Cabaret, a showcase for VU writers to perform and/ or display artistic work in creative and interesting ways.
