Six New Mexican poets, including the past and present poet laureates of Albuquerque, will be taking the stage on Sunday at a celebration of Poetry Out Loud. We will hear their original poems as well as work selected from an honored New Mexican poet. Poetry Out Loud is sponsored by The Poetry Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts, and locally by New Mexico Arts, the state arts agency and a division of the Department of Cultural Affairs. It is a competition for high school students who must recite poems flawlessly, and some of the local competitors will be participating in Sunday’s event.  We will be at the Bookworks in Albuquerque at 3pm, Sunday February 24.  More about this event can be found in the current issue of Alibi .

​I will be attending to show my support – my Original Collage “Hear the Echoes” is featured on the poster promoting the state finals.  This poster has been popular, and I will be bringing the last copies to the poetry reading.  I will also bring the original and some prints as well.  This poster has been showing up in amazing places – in today’s paper,     (the Santa Fe New Mexican)         I was reading an article about some students visiting the Capitol to talk to the representatives – look at the photo that accompanied the article: the poster is on the wall of the office.         How cool is that?
​
​The State Finals of Poetry Out Loud will be in Santa Fe, on Sunday March 10 in the St. Francis Auditorium. I will be attending that as well, with the art and prints.

​My solo show Universe in Pieces continues for a few more weeks (closes March 2) so there is time to catch it.  This show features over a dozen of my Original Collage works with the theme of Outer Space: Galaxies, nebulae, and planets.
​
Meanwhile, I am preparing for the Fest for Beatles Fans.  I set up the Art Room and curate the creations that the fans bring in for display.  I also participate in performance art, stemming from the Beatles Poetry Jam that I host.

Love

and

Peace,
