We had a mutually beneficial marriage of poetry and art at the Ocean Shores Expo at the end of August. Many attended our reading and enjoyed the poetry and hula dancing by Mana Aloha Hula Troupe led by Lilith Rochas. Adam Rankin opened the show with didge and other instruments as part of his Sound Journeys. We featured poets Lisa Brockwell, Kathryn Riding and Laura Jan Shore. The open reading was spirited and full of rich surprises. Here are some photos of the event, thanks to Ri Fraser.
