Open Mic with Craig Milewski
March 18 @ 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm
Craig will read from his book of poems, Delivered this Way. After, anyone can share up to 5 minutes of their own writing at the mic.
Delivered this Way is a bit of a myth journey, an attempt to share experiences that have some universal qualities found in everyday joys and sorrows, interspersed with the wisdom of surreal dreams and visions, and tempered by distance.
Craig Milewski currently resides in the northern Adirondacks. After twenty years, he retired from Paul Smith’s College where he taught a range of courses in ecology (e.g., wetlands, streams, watersheds, ecological restoration) and the humanities (e.g., creative writing, poetry and nature, the stirring of an ecological conscience, the healing wilderness). Life prior to NY included ecological work in the fields of conservation and environmental science in Michigan, Utah, Minnesota and South Dakota. He completed an MFA in Writing from Vermont College of Fine Arts and describes the experience as liberating. His poems have been published in the Blueline and the Midwest Review. Retirement finally affords him the time to fully engage in his creative interests: poetry, writing, and oil painting.
