October 22, 2011, Saturday - Publication Reading: Bringing Gifts, Bringing News: Fifty Poems Five Lines Each at The Loft

Time: 7:00pm

Location:  The Loft, 1011 Washington Avenue South
 
By what meandering did you come to poetry? What paths of shadow and light, of rocky climbs and abrupt descents, have we followed? How might each of our stories be different if along the way even one of us altered our step? Lovers of poetry, friends of the published poets and the general public are all invited to attend a celebratory evening of poetry, conversation, food and drink.

This limited edition anthology was conceived, designed and letter-press printed by George Roberts (DownStairs Press) as an expression of gratitude for 50 years of poetry—both writing and living in the company of other poets. Limited edition copies of this unique book will be available for purchase the evening of the reading. Several authors from the anthology will be in attendance.
