Very excited to be part of two musico-poetic events coming up in the near future.

On May 3rd, I'll be joining guitarist Sean Satin, composer-
musician extraordinaire Gene Pritsker and painter-pianist-composer
Mark Kostabi, among others, performing the piece "Three Ghost Poems" written by yours sorta truly. It will be held at Turtle Bay Music School at 330 East 38th Street in NYC and promises to be an incredible and interesting event. 

​But that's not all. On June 23rd, I'm honored to be one of the poets featured at Jim Kempner Fine Art Gallery (501 West 23rd Street)-- Once again with Gene Pritsker, Mark Kostabi and others-- see the pic above . . .
