Musehouse Students and Instructors to Read From Their Work

Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia, July 22, 2015

Musehouse, a supporter of writers and the literary arts in the Philadelphia area, will host a reading by Musehouse students and instructors at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday, August 1, 2015, at the Chestnut Hill Gallery at 8117 Germantown Avenue in the Chestnut Hill section of Philadelphia. This annual event is a favorite among both readers and audience members alike, and gives Musehouse writers of poetry and prose a chance to showcase their work.

Featured reader Tom Garvey, a former Musehouse student, will read from his book Many Beaucoups Magics. The novel takes place on the Cambodian border in the south-central highlands of Viet Nam in the summer of 1968 and recounts the story of U.S. Army forces and the stone-age tribal people they lead on jungle combat operations.

The event is free and open to the public and will include complimentary refreshments.
