Verse on the Vine Poetry Series

at

Petra Vineyard Wine Gallery
627 Sutter Street (Old Town Historic Folsom)
Folsom, CA 95630

It’s our last show of the year and we’re very proud to present two extremely talented and popular performers. Shawn Pittard’s poetry is beautifully brought to life by his lyrical poetic voice along with the musical sounds of jazz/blues musician Clemon Charles. The two of them have been performing all over Northern California for years. We invite you to step inside the art covered walls of Petra Vineyard Wine Gallery, sip some award winning wine, and join us for an evening of poetry & music.

We also invite you to celebrate two years of community, poetry, art and wine with the release of the Verse on the Vine Anthology, where you’ll find poetry from over 20 featured poets, including three Poets Laureate and several out-of-state poets, along with a photographic journey of all our performers and open-mic poets.
