a gathering of readings around the fireplace, and hot food, to ward off and to celebrate our wintriness, 5:30 PM, Thursday, January 31, in the fire-lit Arts Cafe of the Kelly Writers House
We asked some members of the Writers House community each to read or perform a wintry piece, something along the whited-out lines of Wallace Stevens's "The Snow Man" ("One must have a mind of winter... / And have been cold a long time..."). Several wrote new pieces for the occasion.
We served warmed crocks of hearty soups (available in vegan kosher and meaty), served up with fresh-baked bread. The Writers House oven will produce pumpkin cake and chocolate-chip cookies. There will be hot cider, nourishing finger food, and more.
Many thanks to Adrienne Mishkin, An Lam, Pamela Zinn, and Tahneer Oksman for their help defrosting the wintry atmosphere.
