Stillpoint: A Center for the Humanities & Community is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting a sense of community through the humanities. We work toward this through a small number of events each year, including poetry readings, writers workshops, author talks, music programs and other forums for experiencing and understanding the meaning of community in our lives.

August 17th Reading - Summer Literary Series


Join us Tuesday afternoon, August 17th, 4:00 - 6:00, at Healing Tea, 3216 Arapahoe, for the third and final reading in Stillpoint Center's Summer Literary Series. (Fall schedule coming soon.) Two more talented local writers will read and discuss their work.

• Tom Gilboy "Bark Mice: The Lion and the Mouse Fable Expanded" - Here the mice have opposable thumbs and the lion is an Irish spirit, a pooka, who is fleeing human pursuers in the contemporary US.

• Jennifer Wert "Pattaya," "Juarez," and "San Sebastian" - Short stories exploring place and culture, Jennifer's traveling the distance between the two, and her place in the larger world.

We hope to see you there!
