Fairbanks Arts Literary Reading ft. Third Year UAF MFA Writers

Fairbanks Arts is delighted to welcome third-year graduate students from the UAF MFA program who will share their works of fiction, non-fiction, and poetry in our April reading taking place in the Bear Gallery. Join us to support their talents and wish them well on their future journeys!  

This free event will start at 7:00 pm in the Bear Gallery. All attendees are required to wear a mask.

Lenette Leles will be reading from Gardening with a Migratory Girl. Gardening with a Migratory Girl is a multigenre (or as Lenette likes to say, "genrefluid") piece of metafiction depicting the author's inability and struggle to talk about their own transition.

Keely O'Connell will be reading from Maybe the Same Wolf: Essays, her collection of nonfiction personal essays about wildness, wilderness, love and longing in Alaska.

Michael Kay will be reading a story from his MFA thesis, titled "Packing Birds, Beef, Boxes, Bones."

Alison Miller will be reading from Artifacts of Belief. Somewhere between historical and speculative fiction and academic thriller, Artifacts of Belief invites the reader to think about the hidden ways in which the past shapes the present, and about the complicated relationship between belief and truth.
