Reading at Winter Park Paint Out

April 7, 2018

I’ll be reading my poetry during the Winter Park Paint Out at the Albin Polasek Museum & Sculpture Gardens on Friday, April 27. I’ll read with good pal Susan Lilley, who is Orlando’s first poet laureate, and other talented writers.

Artist Thomas Thorspecken will sketch throughout the event, with his work projected onto a large screen so everyone can watch.

The happy hour event, from 5 to 8 p.m., will include a cash wine/beer bar and appetizers.

During the Paint Out (April 22-28), 25 acclaimed plein air artists will roam Winter Park capturing landscapes and landmarks in oils, watercolor and pastels.

Visit the website of the museum at 633 Osceola Ave. or call 407-647-6294 for more information.

“Terry Godbey’s poems are carefully deployed, personally revealing, and shamelessly boy-crazy. In the best of them, she leads the reader through the doors of adolescence and into the house of poetry.” — Billy Collins
