Georgia A. Popoff
Author Georgia A. Popoff read and discussed her poetry Thursday night at the new Point of Contact Gallery. She is the workshop coordinator for the Downtown Writers Center.
Point of Contact (Punto de Contacto) is still located on the Connective Corridor,but the gallery has officially moved to the Nancy Cantor Warehouse on West Fayette Street. The street-level location was buzzing last night for the poetry reading and book fair kick-off. The audience included students, local authors, artists and SU staff members.
We found the lighting less adequate than the former location (East Genesee Street), but the new space is more inviting and eclectic.
Each Thursday this month, the gallery will host a new writer to celebrate National Poetry Month.
