Doors at 6pm, Reading at 7pm.
Please join us for a reading from Chelsea Frisbee Johnson‘s new chapbook, Listening to Place, where she weaves together stories, family lore, and reflections from the perspective of her favorite place—the farm her family has stewarded for generations. Enjoy snacks from the farm at 6pm, followed by a 7:00 reading from the book and conversation with Willard Frisbee, Chelsea’s 96-year-old grandfather, to hear more of his stories and special relationship with Place.
Books will be available for purchase.
