Big Island poets will gather on Thursday at Volcano Art Center’s Niaulani Campus to present “Voices: Rising from the Page.”

During the event, which begins at 7 p.m., poets will read their work, sharing stories of triumph, sadness, and the range of emotions, which come from the written page.

Big Island renshi poets Mililani Hughes, Bela Johnson, Maata Tukuafu and Dina Kageler will be reading from the cycle entitled “Bloodlines.” Other poets reading will include Kanani Aton, Clint Anderson, Ernelle Downs and Pualani Johnson.

The evening will also include time to discuss poetry, a chance to win a copy of the Hookupu CD, and to pick up Bamboo Ridge books.

This presentation is part of a once-a-month Thursday evening series at the Volcano Art Center, focusing on art, Hawaiian culture and our environment.

This presentation is free, however, donations are welcome.
