Words Aloud: Poems, Songs, & Stories - Featuring Kelly Cass Falzone

Hosted by storyteller, Sonia Fernández LeBlanc, the evening will entail poems, stories, and songs by community members and our featured guest performance from Kelly Cass Falzone. 

Art & Soul member & teacher, Kelly Cass Falzone, is a lifelong swimmer, writer, and artist whose poetry focuses primarily on love, loss, and the human body. She holds an MFA in Creative Writing from Spalding University, and her award-winning work has appeared in journals, anthologies, gallery exhibitions, and on the stage. Critic Robert Peters in Small Press Review called her poetry "...original, unsparing, and brutal."

Doors open at 6:15, show starts at 6:30 pm. 

All word-lovers and listeners are welcome. We encourage an enthusiastic and warm audience for both our new and seasoned readers/writers.

Light snacks & tea provided.
