[You are to write 2 pages detailing an upcoming event at college, a local community center, your church, or a similar location. (Since this is 2020, you can even choose a virtual event; they seem to be happening constantly!) Why is the event happening? Who is organizing it? Who may attend it? When is it? What is the event’s history? What have past responses to similar events been like? What other special information can you share about the event? You must avoid overwhelming the reader with facts while still giving as many relevant details as possible; your goal is to inform and entice.
Any background info you find necessary will require more involved research, so you must properly cite your sources both within the essay and on the Works Cited page. (I will not require citations for personal interviews or information gathered from community-based pamphlets, but any articles or books used must be cited. This excess research is not obligatory for this essay, but your extra effort at mastering MLA documentation will not go unnoticed!)
