Steven Petrow, the 2024 North Carolina Piedmont Laureate, will be joined by Jaki Shelton Green, North Carolina’s Poet Laureate, and Marcie Cohen Ferris, a prolific writer on food and food culture, in an engaging conversation about how writers can promote social change on the page and in the world. You won’t want to miss hearing how three of North Carolina’s most outspoken writers speak their truths.
