In This Valley
Poetry Reading and Art Exhibit
Thursday, March 6, 2014, 7:00 PM
Andrew Carnegie Free Library & Music Hall, Reception Hall, 2nd Floor
As a part of the celebration of Carnegie’s 120th year, I will share poetry and art inspired by my home town. The program is free and a reception follows the reading.
Much of what I do is inspired by the place I live as I’ve walked the trails and streets of Carnegie and the surrounding area, watching the land and people change from my childhood. I’ll be reading about a dozen poems, some of which I’ve presented in prior poetry readings, and a selection of new works.

I’ll also have some familiar paintings and prints as well as recent sketches, paintings and photographs and I’ll have a selection of note cards on display from the set “My Home Town”. In addition, a selection of my photographs from the collections “Of Harps and Fig Leaves” and “Carnegie Photographed” will also be part of the exhibit.
You can see samples of poetry and art from my prior poetry readings at Andrew Carnegie Free Library & Music Hall by visiting the poetry page on my website.
If you’re local, I hope to see you there!

Bernadette,
I’m sorry that, due to a bad cold, I won’t be able to attend. It sounds like a really nice evening and something that I would enjoy. Good luck with it!

Annette, I’m so sorry you’re not feeling well–there’s a bad one going around. Maybe next time–I usually post things here, and you can also sign up for one of my e-newsletters where I post exhibits and even festivals. Get well soon!
