SPOTLIGHT - Growing Voices: Three Literary Arts Recitals in JanuaryIt’s the perfect month, the perfect time of year to hear literary works read by our dazzling regional authors. Three venues on three dates in three local communities will present thirty poets and short story writers reading their own work.
You will hear exotic adventures in Persia, a love poem to an arborglyph and psalms for our aspen forest. Colorado poet R. Keith Gainer promises “language crafted to bring back the scent of a summer campfire to kiss winter from your brow.” Some of the authors write with hearty humor. Others will read poems written in Navajo, while one author tells tall tales of heroic, dangerous treks up Mount Everest. We invite you to stand and cheer, applaud for the authors living near us all, writing their fingers to the bone—just for the chance of reading to you on a cold winter’s night or afternoon.
Growing Voices: Three Literary Arts Recitals presents the following literary artists:
Jennie Dear, Venaya Yazzie, Caroline Arlen, Carmelita Wright, Darlene Adakai Smith, Janae Hererra, Katherine Leiner, Beth Wheeler, Taylor Chase, Amanda Turek Ryan, R.
