St. Mark's-in-the-Valley Church hosts free poetry event

The St. Mark’s-in-the-Valley Episcopal Church hosts a free poetry event at the church in Los Olivos on the evening of Sept. 5. Poets Richard Jarrette and Pamela Davis will read from their respective works followed by a book signing and light refreshments.

Both poets have new books published this year. Jarrette will read from A Hundred Million Years of Nectar Dances and sign the new book. Davis will read from her new collection Lunette, which won the 2014 ABZ Press First Book Poetry Award. Both poets reside in Santa Barbara County.

The poetry program is part of the church’s commitment to provide artistic and literary events to locals throughout the year, explained the Rev. Randall Day in a statement.

The program begins at 7 p.m. on Sept. 5 at the church, 2901 Nojoqui Ave., Los Olivos. More information is available at 688-4454, [email protected], or smitv.org.
