The free event takes place at the Princeton Makes store in the Princeton Shopping Center and features poets Anna M. Evans and Nicole Caruso Garcia.
Evans is the author of “Under Dark Waters: Surviving the Titanic” and “Sisters & Courtesans,” a collection of sonnets. She lives in Hainesport, New Jersey, and teaches at the West Windsor Arts Center and Rowan College at Burlington County. The following is an example of one of her sonnets:
Garcia’s work has appeared in Best New Poets, Light, Mezzo Cammin, ONE ART, Plume, Rattle, and RHINO. In addition to receiving an International Book award for book of narrative poems, “Oxblood,” the Connecticut-based New Jersey native serves as an associate poetry editor at Able Muse. The following sonnet provides a sampling of her work:
The Princeton-based Ragged Sky is a small, cooperative press. It has historically focused on mature voices, overlooked poets, and women’s perspectives.
Princeton Makes, a cooperative comprised of 34 multi-disciplined artists, is located in the Princeton Shopping Center, next to Metropolis Hair Salon.
The free reading is set at 4 p.m. An open mic available to up to 10 audience members interested in reading their original poetry will follow.
