Save the Date! U.S. Poet Laureate Juan Felipe Herrera

Our current U.S. Poet Laureate, Juan Felipe Herrera, is returning to his home state of California and presenting at our very own Carnegie Arts Center in Turlock on Sept. 18! Thanks to the Carnegie and a generous grant from Prime Shine Foundation, MoSt Poetry is thrilled to provide you with this opportunity to meet an active U.S. Poet Laureate. Stay tuned for news about ticket sales, and mark September 18th on your calendars.
