Local Author Showcase

Each month at the Shop at MATTER, we're hosting a lineup of amazing local authors to read their poetry and prose, meet new (and existing) fans, and sign their books & zines.

This month, we're featuring poetry, poetry, and more poetry! Join us as we celebrate the range of amazing literary talents Colorado has to offer. Who knows, maybe you'll discover your new favorite writer!

September's Featured Authors

Varinia Rodriguez (she/her)
Mick Jones (they/them)
Jennifer Muniz (she/they)
Ashley Howell Bunn (she/they)
L.A. (her/she/ella)
Victoria Glidden (she/they)

We'll start at 2:00, with the first three authors presenting one at a time onstage. Those three will then field questions together on stage. After a brief intermission, the final three authors will have their moment and follow the same process. At the end, all 6 authors will sign and sell their books directly to the audience. A big literary lovefest.

Can't make it this month? Never fear! Showcases will be held monthly on the 3rd Sunday of each month.
