Pensacola State College English professor and Poet Laureate of Northwest Florida Jamey Jones tomorrow holds a poetry event at Artel Gallery. The event is part of Artel Gallery’s current show “Thoreau-ly Natural†show, which has brought together artists asked to use “natural materials†to create works inspired by Henry David Thoreau.
Jones has recruited an impressive group of local poets – Quincy “Q†Hull, Ian Be, Annie Reilly, Patricia Edmisten, Katherine Born-Nelson and David Baulch, to name but a few.
