| Description: | Please join the WCPA as we feature the just-announced First Prize Winner of the 2012 WCPA Poetry Contest: The Frank O'Hara Prize, poet and author, Dan Lewis. Lewis, who just recently released his first full-length collection of poetry entitled "This Garden," will take this opportunity to read from this as well as perhaps his chapbook, "Tickets for the Broken Year" a strong collection of prose poems. Lewis, who lives with his wife Ann on Patch Reservoir in Worcester has supported himself in various professions, all the while pursing the vocation of poet and writer. Most recently, he is retired from a position as a technical writer. Lewis has served the WCPA Board of Directors for years as a typographer for "The Worcester Review" and has designed many, many broadsides for various poetry readings and events. Open mic precedes the feature poet and the group usually heads over to the cafe for coffee and ... after the reading. Hosted by Carle Johnson. |
