Susan Gundlach’s poetry is a mixed-media assemblage of words, memories, observations, and questions. Her reflections on neighborhood goings-on, seasonal rhythms, personal or fictional moments, or the why’s and what-if’s of existence elegantly unfurl in her poems.

Lea Basile Lazarus’ artwork is inspired by forms in nature, the human form, and man-made architectural shapes.
