We are also a community where editors,proofreaders,publishers and local arts organizations can join and connect with group members.

Members  will meet in person or virtually share their work online by means of Streamyard,ZOOM or Google meet for a more personal online experience. All members  have the right to create at will their own events or post information about  local opportunities such open mics, local book fairs/festivals for other community members.

Members also will have the opportunity to share and engage with audiences in places like local bookstores, coffee shops and other venues within Alamance, Guilford and Davidson counties as such events are announced to the group.

Alliance members collaborating with each other under the banner of PIEDMONT TRIADS POETS & INDIE AUTHORS ALLIANCE is a win for us as an artist community and for the arts communities where we live because through the power of collaboration WE assist in keeping the writing and speaking arts alive where live.
