Tara Hardy's Book Release Show
Book release show! Come help Tara Hardy give her new book a birthday party! My, My, My, My, My, by Write Bloody Press, is largely inspired by her experiences with illness and of having come face-to-face with her mortality. The poems explore what it means to have a body and for that bodys most important work to be executing the exquisite, temporary and glorious event of being alive.

Joining her on stage will be a luminous cast of poets and musicians performing original and collaborative works. Among them are:

Elissa Ball
Ebo Barton
Garfield Hillson
Jillian Ingram
Kaeley Pruitt-Hamm

Admission: $10 or free with purchase.
Time: 7:00pm show (6:30 doors)

Tara Hardy is the working class, Queer, Femme, chronically ill founder of Bent Writing Institute for LGBTIQ writers in Seattle. She grew up under the great big sky of Michigan, but now writes at the majestic hem of Mount Rainier in Seattle. Her first book of poems Bring Down the Chandeliers, published by Write Bloody Press in 2011, primarily addresses being a father-daughter incest survivor. Tara holds an MFA from Vermont College and is a former Richard Hugo House Writer in Residence, former Seattle Poet Populist and alumnae of Hedgebrook. She is an instructor at Seattle Central College, Richard Hugo House and Path With Art. She is also the Arts Director at Gay City. Tara is a daughter of the United Auto Workers and has been engaged with anti-violence and liberation work since she was old enough to sing at union rallies. Tara has also been a maid (uniform included), park ranger (tractor included), convenience store clerk (threatening clientele included), activist (self righteousness included), and teacher (apple not included).
