North Carolina Poet Laureate Jaki Shelton Green reads at Western Carolina University Wednesday, October 30th, at 7:30 p.m.
North Carolina Poet
Laureate Jaki Shelton Green will be reading at Western Carolina
University next Wednesday evening, October 30th, at 7:30, in Blue Ridge
Conference Room A. I've sent out press releases and WCU publicity
venues have the information, but I know that kind of thing can be very
easy to miss. This is a rare opportunity to hear a sitting poet
laureate--they often don't make it this far west--and Jaki's poetry is
accessible and enjoyable. Jaki is also North Carolina's first
African-American poet laureate and only our third female poet laureate. Parking on WCU's campus can be a bit dicy, but there are pay lots near McKee, behind the University Center, and behind Reid Gym.
