Join us for our final gathering of the semester as we immerse ourselves in the beautifully layered work of Poet Rickey Laurentiis, whose sophomore collection was recently longlisted for the National Book Award.

Laurentiis will share new and selected poems that explore radical justice, pleasure, and the body’s intersections with time and history. The evening follows a Creative Writing Workshop open to all JMU students the night before.

The poetry reading counts as a passport event. This is the last opportunity this semester to come enjoy an evening of poetry and get your course stamp!

The reading is free and open to the public. Bring a friend!
