Join us for a special panel discussion in our monthly event series Milkweed Presents! For this conversation, torrin a. greathouse, author of the incredible poetry collection Wound from the Mouth of a Wound, curates a panel of (yet-to-be-announced) local guest QTBIPOC poets to read their work and talk about what community means to them.

Please join us in-person at Milkweed Books, our brick-and-mortar independent bookstore located on the first floor of Open Book, at 6 p.m. for an unforgettable night of poetry and discussion.
