Welcome

August 30 at 6:30 pm — Poetry Reading

Poetry, open mic, and potluck at the Kent Park Pavilion

Stephen Lewandowski has retired after a forty year career with various conservation agencies while publishing fifteen large and small books of poetry and essays. His most recent is Hard Work in Low Places, a collection of poems published by Tiger Bank Press in Rochester, NY. He hopes his poetry will interest students of natural history, biological sciences, geology, watersheds and macroinvertebrates. He has spent the majority of his life in the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York whose preservation and protection he alternately desires and despairs. His new book of poems, Ground Truth, Poems from the Field, was published in April of 2024 by Cayuga Lake Books of Ithaca, NY.

David Mihalyov lives near Lake Ontario in Webster, NY, with his wife, two daughters, and a beagle. His poems and short fiction have appeared in Tar River Poetry, Ocean State Review, Dunes Review, Free State Review, New Plains Review, San Pedro River Review, and other journals. His first poetry collection, A Safe Distance, was published by Main Street Rag Press in 2022.
