poetry reading at Goldfish Tea

I’m pleased to be a part of a well-rounded night of performances happening this Saturday, at Goldfish Tea in Royal Oak MI. The event runs from 6-10pm and is free and open to the public, so do drop in for a pleasant evening of poetry if you’re near.

The evening will host a selection of poetry, music, and cross-genre work by artists including Emily Rose, Laura Bodary, Patrick O’Leary, Alison Donahue, Barbara Klimkowski, and Justin Petrusak. Hosted by the feature reader, Cat Listening will also be launching a new book at Saturday’s event.

Goldfish Tea is located at 117 4th Street in Royal Oak MI. For more information about the venue, visit their website here: http://www.goldfishtea.com.

I’ll be reading selections from stains and likely a few new pieces. I hope to see you there!
