AFTER VOICES

‘Mid- month readings at The Morgan Conservatory and Visible Voice’

With the heart of the fall hitting us, October 16th and 17th in Cleveland will show more than just a season as writers and readers converge that Friday night at 7 p.m. at The Morgan Conservatory, and Visible Voice Bookstore at 7 p.m. Saturday night.

The Morgan Art of Papermaking Conservatory and Educational Foundation is an Ohio non-profit art center dedicated to the preservation of handmade papermaking and the art of the book. Morgan Conservatory pursues its educational and charitable purposes by serving the greater community locally, nationally, and internationally with sustainable practices in an innovative green environment. They host art classes, workshops, internships and lectures from professionals across the country year round.

Burning River will be releasing it’s 1st chapbook from Jane that weekend, ’After Voices.’ It will be downloadable freely for those who are unable to get a copy from their website, along with more details about the October readings. (http://www.burningriver.info)

Thanks for mentioning this!

I'd like to add that 10-string guitarist JJ Haaz will be accompanying me at the Friday session. I'm very much looking forward to it.
