FLORENCE-The Kennedy-Douglass Center for the Arts is excited to host an evening of poetry to celebrate the launch of Seven Points Press, sponsored by Artist Gathering group, on Thursday, October 19th from 6-8 pm at 209 East Tuscaloosa Street. The event will feature poetry readings, music and refreshments. This event is free and everyone is welcome.
The mission of Seven Points Press is to offer unpublished and under-published creative writers and other artists associated with the Shoals area of Alabama the opportunity to bring their work to print. It is a non-commercial enterprise designed to ensure that any profit accruing from the sale of the author’s work goes directly to the author. Writers and other artists who feel their work is ready for a public audience are encouraged to submit their work for review.
The event will feature the poetry of Jake Berry, Dorlea Rikard, Chris Mansel, Jeanie Thompson, Tyler Young, and Jason McCall.
The Kennedy-Douglass Center for the Arts is free and open to the public Monday – Friday from 9-4 and on Sundays from 1-4. The art center is located at 217 E. Tuscaloosa St. Florence, AL and can be reached by calling (256) 760-6379. Please note: the event will be held at 209 East Tuscaloosa Street, just next to the KD Art Center.
