Gather under the pink moon at Mount Tabor park (an extinct cinder cone volcano) to hear geologically-themed poems from Carolyn Supinka’s debut collection, Metamorphic Door. Carolyn will be joined by fellow poet Ryan Mills and local musician, Olivia Awbrey accompanying Carolyn and playing their own short set of original songs. Free & all ages. We are meeting fairly close to car-access; on the west side of the park, under the Laurel tree at signpost #10, just past the first turret. Parking is limited and carpooling greatly encouraged! Performances will start shortly after 6pm(ish). Unless things become torrential, we plan to go ahead with the event rain or shine so wear your rain gear and bring an umbrella. (we will announce on Instagram if the event does need to be rescheduled due to weather) See you there!

Join us at local Buckman neighborhood spot, Up Up Books for a two-part event to celebrate the launch of Metamorphic Door by Carolyn Supinka. Part one is an interactive workshop led by Conjunction Press editors Carolyn Supinka and Karah Kemmerly. Using prompts, collage, found text and poetry, participants will be guided through the process of putting together a zine in collaboration with other artists. Everyone will receive a copy of the zine created during the workshop, which will take place in the workshop back room of the bookshop space from 5:30-6:30pm. Spots are still open for the workshop (RSVP is preferred to help us know the proper amount of supplies to bring. E-mail emmi@buckmanpublishing.com to claim your spot!)

This will be followed by a reading by local poets Karah Kemmerly, Darla Mottram, Harper Quinn, and of course, Carolyn Supinka. Books will be for sale with the author standing by to autograph your copy. Free and open to all with light refreshments served. Hope to see you there!

Up Up Books is ADA-accessible.
