James Crews with Elizabeth Berg

You have the opportunity to be treated to something truly special: a reading by poet James Crews, whose work is gentle, aware, and full of kindness, compassion, and love. His poetry is also that most wonderful of things: accessible. Hearing his poems is like having a beloved friend talk to you, a friend with marvelous powers of observation that he is happy to share. As poet Dorianne Laux says, “Any good poem is asking you simply to slow down.” James Crews’ poems will show you how to do just that: open up and relax into words and feelings that will enrich your spirit and remind you of the worth of being fully human.

I can’t think of anything we need more these days! Bring a friend and stay after for special treats!
