The 2011 season kicks off with the Thurber Treat, an annual contest that invites writers to try their hand at a Thurber-related theme. This year writers are asked to choose one Thurber cartoon from a predetermined selection, come up with a new caption for the cartoon, and then elaborate on the caption with an amusing story. Nancy Gilson, arts editor for the Columbus Dispatch, will host the evening. The top three contest winners will read their entries.
