Readings are free and open to the public. Unless otherwise indicated, they take place at noon in the Little Theater on the main campus in Port Angeles.

Foothills Writers Series presents Tess Gallagher

In conjunction with Studium Generale, we’re delighted to welcome back the wonderful poet, essayist, novelist, and playwright Tess Gallagher, who hails from Port Angeles. Known widely throughout the world for her writings, she will be reading from her newest book, which was done in collaboration with Josie Gray. Barnacle Soup and other stories from the west of Ireland brings to life a disparate cast of Irish characters and recreates the fabric of their lives. Published by Blackstaff Press, the book has been called “a lyrical feast for all those who love hearing and reading stories.”
