Visit and purchase new and popular book titles during the Local Authors Showcase from 1:30-4 p.m. Sunday at the Missouri River Regional Library in Jefferson City.
More than 15 authors will share and sell their works, including Missouri River Regional Library staff member Kimberly Bolton, who recently released her first poetry book, "Folk." She was honored as the Poet of the Week by "Poetry Super Highway" this year and also leads the bi-annual Poetry Reading at the library, a news release said.
"We have a very talented staff, and it is always fun to see a staff member create something from that talent," MRRL Director Claudia Cook said in the news release. "We love Kim's commitment to the art of poetry and appreciate her sharing that love with the MRRL community."
