Don’t spend another night at AWP hungry and bored, listening to some endless reading in a bar that only serves bowls of stale popcorn for dinner. Instead, join us for an anniversary celebration of poetry and prose honoring 60 years of Poetry Northwest!
Enjoy a West-Coast-meets-East-Coast meal cooked up by Northwest chef Sarah Schneider, along with appearances by BOA poets Ellen Bass, Geffrey Davis, Keetje Kuipers, and Erika Meitner, along with special guests Leila Chatti, Alix Ohlin, Nancy Lee, David Hernandez, and Ed Skoog’s bluegrass band The Hill Williams.
Advanced tickets are available for $35.
