On March 28, Writers Read will present a selection from "Dear Human at the Edge of Time: Poems on Climate Change in the United States," a work that grew out of the Academy of American Poets Laureate Civic Projects. Over 70 poets are represented in the collection, published in September 2023, including our current US Poet Laureate, Ada Limón (originally from Santa Rosa!).

Our featured reader this evening will be Aileen Cassineto, San Mateo County Poet Laureate Emerita, and one of the book's contributing poets.

Writers Read, held at Grace Hudson Museum on the last Thursday of almost every month, is an opportunity for local poets and authors to present live readings of their work. Sessions are two hours (7:00-9:00 pm), with the first hour devoted to a featured reader and the second to an open mic. Refreshments will be available during the break. Writers Read events are always free, but a donation is requested.
