First Mondays: Poets in Performance

Mon 6/7 @ 7PM

Feast on words and music at the historic Alcazar Hotel on Mon 6/7. First Mondays is a monthly reading series happening on the first Monday of the month (go figure). For June, hear the works of Gail Bellamy and Lee Chilcote [pictured].

Here’s more:

We’re showcasing the work of Cleveland Heights Poet Laureate Gail Bellamy,
who was also awarded a 2010 Creative Workforce Fellowship. Joining Gail is
poet and guitarist Lee Chilcote who will entertain with a combination of
poetry, music and song. Gail is known for her food metaphors. Her work
includes titles like Victual Reality and Traveler’s Salad, both published by
Pudding House. Lee’s work has been published locally in Muse, Whiskey
island, Out of Line, and Northern Ohio Live.  He’s been strumming and
poetizing for some time and recently began writing his own songs believing
that songwriting would be easier than writing poetry. (He admits that he
should have known better.)

Get poetic @ the Alcazar, located on top of Cedar Hill in the Cedar-Fairmount neighborhood in Cleveland Hts.
