Poetry Readings
Lecture on Ekphrastic Poetry - November 2008 / at the Pewuakee Public Library
I will be giving a lecture on ekphrastic poetry as well as a poetry reading from past selected works and my upcoming book Living Nature's Moments. Some selections of poetry will be recent poems inspired by local Wisconsin artists from the Pewaukee Lake area and from the Griffin Gallery in Oconomowoc, WI. Come one ~ come all to this fun, literary event to bring greater awareness to the genre of ekphrasic poetry and to support the arts in the local community.
Date and time details coming soon!
