Kerry Rutherford Release Reading
Sat, January 20 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Please join us for an evening in celebration of double (Poetry and Nonfiction) MFA alumn Kerry Rutherford. She and others will be reading from her new book of poems, In Search of Groovy. The event will be at 7:00 at Spark Central, January 20, 2024. The reading is free and will be followed by a reception at the same location.
This is truly a special event, a chance to recognize and celebrate the spirit and work of a sister poet. It should be an evening of poetry and comradeship you won’t forget.
Please, due to immune system sensitivity, no personal scents or flowers.
Spanning the life of a free and adventuresome spirit—from childhood fantasies alongside a beloved dog to riding the rails across Alaskan wilderness to watching the world through wise and kind eyes of age—these poems of Kerry Rutherford remind us that we too are here for a while and may live in wonder, fascination, and love. You hold in your hand a life’s testament, a great gift, a spell book for conjuring not only the past, but our own present and future. Read it and travel on in the company of a funny, wide, beautiful guide as your search for your own groovy.
