About this Event
We’re lucky to have our featured poet Lennie Hay at this month's Coffee and Poetry at Jack's. Local writer, poet, storyteller, comedian, and actor Victoria Dym will emcee and also read.
Lennie Hay is a 2019 MFA graduate of Spalding University, Louisville, KY. She earned her undergraduate degree at the University of Minnesota, and masters and doctorate degrees from the University of Louisville. She grew up in the Midwest between two cultures—Chinese immigrants and German Ukrainian farmers. A former educator, she’s lived in the Louisville area for over 50 years and now lives near the water in Southern Indiana and in Florida. She draws energy for her poetry from her family’s history, the natural world, visual art, food, and music. Lennie has been published in journals such as the Louisville Review, Literary Accents, Heartland Review, the Shanghai Literary Review and others, as well as in three anthologies. Her book Lost in America was published in 2024 by Broadstone Books. She has a new book, Feeding the Dead, forthcoming from Broadstone Books in 2026.
The reading starts at 3pm. So come on by and grab a cup of joe and complimentary pastries. You can sign up to recite with our resident poet and emcee Victoria Dym when you get to Jack’s house. Tickets are limited and they are $10 each plus tax and fees.
