Covid Anthology Launch Party with Lotsa Laureates!

South Windsor Poet Laureate Charles Margolis, Manchester PL Ryan Parker, and Vernon Inaugural PL Pegi Deitz Shea will lead the launch party for the anthology "Coming Out of Covid: A Celebration of Poetry, Prose and Community." These literary pieces, photos and artwork capture three separate events held in each town in 2021, and feature area authors, many of whom will read at the launch as well. The beautiful anthology will be on sale for only $10. The project was made possible by a grant from the South Windsor Community Foundation.
Other featured readers include new South Windsor PL Steve Straight, South Windsor Youth PL Ria Saxena, and Canton PL Emerita Joan Hofmann
The event is free, open to the public, and needs no registration. Refreshments served!
