Join us for a reading with poets Brian Teare and Aditi Machado. Brian Teare will be reading from his recent poetry, and Aditi Machado will be reading from her new collection, Material Witness. This in-person event will be free and open to the public. We recommend arriving early for the best seating.

His most recent publications are a pair of book-length ekphrastic projects exploring queer abstraction, chronic illness, and collage: the 2022 Nightboat reissue of The Empty Form Goes All the Way to Heaven, and the fall 2023 publication of Poem Bitten by a Man, winner of the William Carlos Williams Award. An associate professor of poetry at the University of Virginia, Brian lives in Charlottesville, where he makes books by hand for his micropress, Albion Books.
