I’m excited to share that I’ll be reading at “Poetry by the River: Environmental Stewardship through the Arts” on Friday, June 20th, in London, Ontario. It’s a collaboration of Antler River Poetry, Antler River Rally, and London Bicycle Café (all of my favourite things–poetry, rivers, bicycles !!). We’ll start with a river cleanup at the Forks of Deshkan Ziibi/the Thames and then skip over to the London Bicycle Café for poetry and music from former London poet laureate Tom Cull, musician Shawn Durant, and myself. If you’re the area, I hope you can join !
