SUMMARY:Barry Kraft reads the poetry of Charlotte Mew and Louis MacNeice
DESCRIPTION:Barry Kraft will read poems by Charlotte Mew and Louis MacNeice from 7 to 8 p.m. Thursday\, Sept. 28\, at Bloomsbury Books\, 290 E. Main St.\, Ashland. \nPoetry happens\, and keeps on happening. It accumulates. Poets who are published\, say\, during the 1970s in collections bearing titles such as “Today’s Poetry\,” soon find themselves no longer “today’s” poets. \nThe avalanche of new poems doesn’t slow down\, but can leave glistening patches behind. Two such bright patches are poems by Charlotte Mew (1869-1928) and Louis MacNeice (1907-1963). Please join Barry for a shared hour of acquaintance — or reacquaintance — with these two fine poets.

SUMMARY:Meet the Author: Lucretia Weems
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a talk from Lucretia Weems\, author of “This Wild Life: Heroines in the History of Botany\, 1650-1850.” \nThese are the forgotten stories of a remarkable group of European women.

Each was a true heroine: brave\, talented and deeply adventurous. \nPlease join us to hear more about the fascinating tales of the Heroines in the History of Botany. Copies of “This Wild Life” will be available for purchase and signing at the event. \nLucretia Weems was classically trained at the UCLA Landscape Architecture program\, is a Jackson County Master Gardener\, and has been designing gardens in the Rogue Valley for over 15 years.
