Blue Heron Coffeehouse | 162 W 2nd St.
Samuel Hawkins II, Spoken Word Poet, will read from his work at the Blue Heron Coffeehouse on September 5th.

Samuel has performed his work at festivals, colleges, and conventions in Tennessee, Kentucky, Washington DC, Tampa Bay, Vero Beach, St. Petersburg, Atlanta, Baltimore, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Minneapolis. His poetry forces us to see homelessness, sexual abuse, relationships, art, testimonies, love, war, the light within us, our potential, history, and God. This First Tuesday Laureate Writers Series event is co-sponsored by the Maria W. Faust Sonnet Contest and the Blue Heron Coffeehouse.
