On Thursday, January 15 at 7pm The Third Thursday Poetry & Jazz Reading Series will feature Mendocino County poet Zida Borcich. The reading will take place at The Record at 255 Main Street in downtown Point Arena. The reading begins with live improv jazz, followed by a featured reading with the musicians accompanying Borcich, then an open mic with jazz improv, and finally the reading concludes with more live improv jazz. Poets, storytellers and musicians are welcome. 

Zida Borcich is a mom, grandma, journalist, letterpress printer, graphic designer, jazz singer, and occasional poet. She lives on the Mendocino Coast of northern California. Since 2010, she has published Real Estate Magazine, a monthly that features ads and a single, locally focused story. She writes many of the stories, along with a column titled “It’s REAL.” Before that, for twenty-seven years, she had a letterpress job shop in Fort Bragg and a card line that was sold in hundreds of stationery and paper stores nationwide.

Happiest times are spent with her daughters, grand kids, & beloved partner, and when she is not cooking, traveling, singing, or gardening, she hangs out with a collection of cherished friends who reside in the nest of creativity, intelligence, beauty, and fun that is her community. The works in this book were gathered from many years of sporadic poetry writing spells. The act of gathering these pieces into one place has been a most engaging project and she is surprised to note that, “It’s turned into a kind of inadvertent autobiography.”

Third Thursday Poetry & Jazz is supported by The Third Thursday Poetry Group. Poets & Writers, Inc. has lost its small grant funding, so we are open to donations. Please DM to get info on how to donate.
