Local poet, author, and professor, Diana Coogle, will share a selection of her work and choice bits about her writing process and poetic philosophy. The reading will be followed by a brief Q & A, then an open mic for community poetry sharing.

This program is facilitated by Lisa Baldwin, a fifth-generation native Oregonian, who works as a poet and freelance writer, an editor and publisher, a teacher, literary consultant, and poetry evangelist.

Space is limited and registration is required for this in-person program. To register and for more information, call 541-476-0571 or email info@josephinelibrary.org.
