Sherb Literary Living Room feat: Rick Kempa
Doors: 6:00 PM || Reading: 6:30 PM || Open Mic to follow for Writers and Poets to share || $5 entry
Setting: Seated
Settle in for an intimate Literary Living Room with backcountry writer Rick Kempa—founding editor of Deep Wild: Writing from the Backcountry and author of Truths of the Trail and Too Vast for Sleep. Kempa’s poems and prose carry the quiet thrum of wild places: canyon echoes, boot-beat rhythms, and the small revelations that appear when the trail gets long.
After Rick’s featured reading and Q&A, we’ll open the mic to the community. Bring a poem, a short excerpt, or a trail-earned truth of your own. Open Mic: brief shares welcome; sign-ups begin at the door
Come for the words, stay for the voices—Ridgway’s literary living room is warm and open.
