Dear KAC District 5 Members,
Here's a summary of July's District 5 meeting.
Minutes July 14, 2018
Kansas Humanities sponsored Kevin Rabas, Kansas Poet Laureate, for our meeting today. Kevin presented an upbeat and fun afternoon with his own percussion performances accompanying his reading of his poetry and the works of some of his favorite poets. He then talked about his writing habits, and the importance of sharing time and ideas with other writers in whatever genre you prefer. He had the audience offer a list of twenty random words, and then we did a writing exercise and share-around of our pieces using as many of those words as possible. Thanks to Larksfield Place and our own Susan Howell for arranging the room and providing a wonderful array of refreshments.
Our next meeting will take place on August 11, in the meeting room adjacent to the Larksfield Dining Room, at 1:30 PM. For the Convention Planning Committee and all interested in helping with the 2019 State Convention, please meet at 12:30 PM on the same day in the same meeting room.
Connie White, Secretary
