Dickinson Poetry Series Presents Sharon Auberle

On Aug. 10 at 7 pm, Sharon Auberle is the featured reader at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Door County’s Dickinson Poetry Series.

Auberle grew up in the Midwest, exploring fields, woods and waters, often in the company of her grandfather, who passed his love of the outdoors to her. With this heritage, her years of living in the Southwest, and now in Door County, she finds much to draw on in her writing and photography.

Besides poetry, photography, collage and paper arts are her passion, samples of which may be found on her blog, “Mimi’s Golightly Café.”

Auberle is the author of three books: Saturday Nights at the Crystal Ball, Crow Ink, and EVErywoman; and a poetry collection co-authored with Ralph Murre; as well as collaborations with poets Jeanie Tomasko and Alice D’Alessio, which feature her photography.

“Writing memoir helps me to write poetry, and my poems distill the uncountable events of my days down to their essence – the ‘aha’ moments, the joys and sorrows of my life, those things I wish never to forget.”

On the second Wednesday of every month the Dickinson Poetry Series features a renowned local or regional poet followed by an open mic and reception. The public is welcome and there is no charge. The UUF is located at 10341 Hwy. 42 in north Ephraim. For more information visit uufdc.org or call 920.854.7559.
