There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu
*********************************
There will be a limited number of Dunn’s and Macari’s latest books to give away on a first-come, first-served basis. You can pick up your free copy on the way into the auditorium. Plan on arriving early to get your free book. There will also be a book sale and signing following the reading.
If you’d like to be a part of the free spring McEver Community Poetry Workshops, those of you who attend the reading can pick up your application at the event before anyone else and have first choice of workshops.
The Kress Auditorium is located in the Institute of Paper Science and Technology at Georgia Tech at 500 Tenth St. / Atlanta, GA 30309. The Kress is easy to find, and it has plenty of free, secure parking. For directions or parking information, visit www.ipst.gatech.edu/amp/.
Those coming early can partake of some light refreshments and take some time to browse The Robert C. Williams Paper Museum. The museum has a brand new exhibit featuring the work of Peter Sowiski, pulp painter. For examples of Sowiski's work and information about his process, click on: http://www.ipst.gatech.edu/amp/exhibits/Sowiski/index.html. The museum is just one floor above the Kress and houses an amazing collection of paper and papermaking artifacts and exhibits.
