Come help poet Brooks Decker celebrate the publication of her debut chapbook, Purge & Bloom. Come hear Brooks read -- eat, drink and be merry -- meet friends old & new -- and support local artists!
THE BOOK - Purge & Bloom is a narrative reflection of processing growth and being human. Decker’s debut poetry chapbook is a powerful balance of light and dark. While its first section, Purge, deals with difficult life experiences, mental health struggles, love and relationships, its counterpart, Bloom, contains poems representing growth, renewal, and hope. The collection is curated in such a way that the poems in Bloom are a response to their numbered counterparts in Purge.
HOW TO GET THERE - Enter the south facing building of the Cork Arts District on the Rosselle Street entrance. Park in the lot beside the building or along the street. Follow the posters to the entrance and the classroom.
