Program Description

Event Details

 

Join us for a free reading with two local poets!

 

Annis Cassells and Tom Mitchell will read from their latest works. Annis will be reading from her 2023 publication, What the Country Wrought. From motorcycling adventures to women’s suffrage, from the thunder of injustice to compassion and peace, Annis writes with an eye for description, an ear for musicality, and a heart for us all. Tom will be reading from his 2024 publication, Crow Genesis. Tom ”is a poet whose listening matters more than most people’s hearing, whose looking reveals more than what most of us can see.” —Robert Wrigley, author of Box and Anatomy of Melancholy

Authors will have copies of their work for sale after event.
