10/21: Janaka Stucky, Bianca Stone, Sampson Starkweather

Hello out there!

It is raining today, but on Friday we expect clear skies.

Clear poetry skies, that is.

This Friday, 10/21, at 7 p.m., three poets will be showing us what is clear and what is cloudy. And also what are the gentle breezes.

From the cabinets of The Multifarious Array Reading Series, we present to you:

Janaka Stucky!

Bianca Stone!

Sampson Starkweather!

See you there!

Truly,
Dorothea Lasky
