Join Shelley Getten (Of Cows and Crows) and Julie Gard (I Think I Know You) as they read from their recently published books and new work at the first poetry reading event at Foxes and Fireflies.

In her collection, Gard attempts to map out, complicate, and bridge divides, concluding that a sense of belonging, and a shared sense of home, may be the most important thing we have to offer each other.

Getten evokes 10 years of life on a hardscrabble farm in Central Minnesota as seen through the eyes of a young girl.

Discussion and signing will follow reading.
