Girls’ night out promises poetry reading

The Art Gallery of Windsor’s monthly art lounge will have a University flavour Thursday, as instructor Marty Gervais hosts and two of the three featured poets are UWindsor alumnae.

“Girls Night Out” will feature Kate Hargreaves (BA 2010, MA 2012), Vanessa Shields (BA 2002) and Melanie Janisse reading humorous works dealing with everything from roller derby to pregnancy.

Patrons will also have an opportunity to tour current exhibitions “Paris/Ojibwa” by Robert Houle, “The Wildcraft” by Kika Thorne, and “Mean Machines” by John Scott.

The event is free and open to the public and runs 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday, November 15, in the gallery’s third-floor Rodzik Gallery. The Art Gallery of Windsor is located at 401 Riverside Drive West.
