For the Fayettevillains in the Crowd:

The local Burning Chair reading series is hosting a poetry reading in Fayetteville, AR that will feature one of Linebreak’s poets: Farrah Field, who wrote “Matilda Stays Up Late With No Questions to Ask” will be reading with Jared White at “an undisclosed location” that turns out to be at 3996 N. Frontage Road, #2.

The reading will happen Friday, June 12 starting at 6:30. While you should bring your own date, there will be free refreshments. Over at Burning Chair, they evidently understand how important free food can be to drawing a crowd of poets.

Here’s a map:
