This gathering of the tribe—all staff poets from this year’s Community of Writers’ Summer Poetry Workshop in Squaw Valley—will raise money for the Poetry Program’s financial aid and scholarships. Join us for a reading, signing, and reception with the poet teachers. Books by the poets will be available for purchase before and after the reading.

Tickets are $25 advance/$30 at the door for general admission and $12 advance/$15 at the door for students (with current student ID).
Premium seating, first 2 rows, $45.  Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the Show begins at 7:00 p.m.

Group price, 10 or more tickets purchased at the same time: $20/ticket.
