Author Reading and Writing Workshop with Moheb Soliman
5:30 pm, Monday, June 21
In-Person program at Hackley Public Library
Join Great Lakes writer and artist Moheb Soliman for a nature-writing workshop, followed by a public reading of his new poetry book HOMES (Coffee House Press, 2021) and an informal talk with other local special guests.
Special guests include:
- David Ruck from Great Lakes Outreach Media
- Kathy Evans from West Michigan Shoreline Regional Development Commission
- Patrick Horn from Muskegon Heritage Museum
Workshop participants will engage in writing prompts and discussion about the connections between nature, language, identity, and modern life.
The reading will present his collection of poems–part postmodern nature poetry and part immigrant travelogue, and the talk will further explore the diverse intersections and narratives of the Great Lakes region.
This event will take place inside Hackley Public Library (NOT at Heritage Landing). The first 15 people to arrive at the program will receive a free journal, while supplies last.
