Poetry Reading and Discussion with Mar Goman and Judith Arcana
Saturday, May 1, 7:30 p.m.

Please join us for a poetry reading and discussion with Mar Goman (currently exhibiting in the gallery) and Judith Arcana.
 
Mar and Judith will close this month’s show with a performance and discussion of Judith’s poems used in Goman’s piece Maternity Dress along with some of her own related work. Goman and Arcana will discuss collaboration across art forms—describing how Maternity Dress and other works have evolved and developed between them. Copies of What if Your Mother, Judith’s poetry collection will be available for sale.

Arcana is a Portland resident and often performs her work at colleges, libraries, bookstores and community organizations. She is also the author of two prose books about motherhood, Our Mothers’ Daughters and Every Mother’s Son and two short poetry collections: Family Business, 4th Period English, and Grace Paley’s Life Stories, A Literary Biography.
