Poet Laureate Giving Workshop in Bowling Green

Budding poets will have a chance to work with Kentucky Poet Laureate Frank X Walker at a workshop in Bowling Green this weekend. The Warren County Public Library is hosting the event from 9:30 am to 12:30 pm Central time at its main branch on State Street.

Assistant Library Director Ashley Fowlkes says Walker has been popular during previous events at the library, saying he's very talented and a great teacher.

Walker is a founding member of the Affrilachian Poets and a writer in residence and lecturer of English at Northern Kentucky University. He's lectured, conducted workshops and read poetry at more than 300 national conferences and universities.

Admission to the workshop is free but registration is needed due to limited space. To register, call 270-781-4882 or email jessek@warrenpl.org.
