Join us for a wonderful evening of readings by our program’s third Louis Armstrong/Queens College MFA Writers-in-Residence in the beautiful garden of the Louis Armstrong House Museum. In case of rain, reading will be moved inside. Writers will be reading from new works that were created in response to the Armstrong House Museum & Archives, which houses Armstrong’s recordings, films, letters, photographs, and collages in a world renowned collection.
Brian Kim will be graduating from Queens College with an MFA in Creative Writing this June. He focuses on short forms -- usually fiction.
Melissa Bobe is a translation student in the Queens College MFA in Creative Writing and Literary Translation program. She will be graduating this approaching June, and will be starting her PhD in English literature at Rutgers, New Brunswick in the fall.
A Q&A and reception will follow. For more information, call 718-997-4671 or visit www.qc.cuny.edu/Creative_Writing.
