Gypsy Valentine

Here’s a Valentine event that’s sure to put the red back into your blood.

Edmonton poets Mandie Lopatka, Laurie MacFayden, Kelly Shepherd and Amy Willans invite you to, “an afternoon of smokin’ hot verse and bohemian music.”

If you haven’t heard these acclaimed poets read before be prepared for a kind of earthy epiphanic vertigo. Their verse, caravanned by “the smouldering violin of Karen Donaldson Shepherd and the Mediterranean stylings of Greek/jazz guitarist George Koufogiannakis,” guarantees that this Valentine affair will heat up every one of your heart’s cockles. 

It all happens at Leva Café on Sunday, February 13.
