You may think donuts pair best with coffee, but I would challenge you to think even sweeter. Join poets Lynnell Edwards and Sean Patrick Hill for a deliciously free reading at Java Brewing Company tonight at 7:30pm.

The poet returns to her alma mater this upcoming Thursday, September 27th, as part of the University of Louisville’s Axton Reading Series. Join Maureen Morehead at 7:30pm for a free reading of well-lauded poetics.
