Two prominent New Mexico poets, Dale Harris and Damien Flores, will read poetry live on Zoom on Sunday, December 27 at 4:00 p.m., as part of the ongoing Teatro Paraguas poetry reading series.
Dale Harris has made New Mexico home since 1993 when she and actor/chef husband Scott Sharot settled near Mountainair. They opened the popular Hummingbird Café where monthly Live Poets Society readings attracted a multitude of visitors. Its success led Dale to organize the Sunflower Festival Poets & Writers Picnic and Writers' Workshops at the historic Shaffer Hotel, annual events that continued for fourteen years. She edited Central Avenue monthly poetry journal and hosted the reading series from 2002 - 2007. Dale was associate editor for The Malpaís Review poetry quarterly from its inception until it ceased publication in 2016. She is an organizer for the annual Poets Picnic at the Open Space Visitor Center in Albuquerque, an event that includes haiku submissions from New Mexico poets displayed on Weathergrams created by Escribiente calligraphers. Dale's poetry books are available on Amazon. Her poems are widely anthologized and she enjoys performing her work at a variety of venues and arts festivals.
