May 09 Saturday
A public reading by Springfield essayist James Thompson featuring original essays on addiction, recovery, memory, and meaning. The event will include a live reading followed by questions and open conversation. The tone is reflective rather than clinical-- intended for anyone interested in recovery, storytelling, or how people make sense of their lives. Donations are accepted but not required.
