Poetry Center San Jose presents the Well-Red Poetry reading Series, featuring Amy MacLennan and Kimberly Escamilla at Works / San Jose on Wednesday, April 16 at 7pm. Admission is a $2 suggested donation, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds.

Her chapbook, Weathing, was published in 2012 by Uttered Chaos Press and her work has appeared in the anthology Myrrh, Mothwing, Smoke: Erotic Poems (Tupelo Press, 2013). She is currently the Managing Editor of The Cortland Review.

Kimberly Escamilla’s recent work has appeared in Red Wheelbarrow, Plath Profiles, and The Huffington Post.
