Mile High Jazz Band presents 'Farewell, Goodnight' An Evening of Jazz and Poetry
The Mile High Jazz Band with guest vocalists Jakki Ford and Cindee LeVal will be joined by five poets and readers for "Farewell, Goodnight," a lively evening of big-band jazz music and poetry in Carson City.
The event will be on Tuesday, June 11, 7:30-9:30 p.m., at Comma Coffee, 312 S. Carson Street, across the street from the state legislature building. Admission is $5 general and free for age 18 and under.
The program will feature award-winning poets and readers Krista Lukas, Terri Breeden, Rita Geil, Susan Sara Priest, and Amy Roby.
Lukas, currently a resident of Minden, will read from her collection "Fans of My Unconscious," recently published by Black Rock Press.
The June 11 jazz and poetry event is a farewell for Lukas, who received a poetry fellowship from the University of California, Riverside, where she will begin a Master of Fine Arts program in fall of 2013.
