"Meet Me There" is a monthly inter-generational poetry, fiction, and creative non-fiction experience at Charis Books & More in Decatur, Georgia, outside of Atlanta. The series is curated and hosted by trans/genderqueer poet and sound artist, Samuel Ace. Writers exploring genre and gender boundaries will be a special focus of this series. This event usually takes place on the second Thursday of each month at 7:30pm Eastern time. Some months our readings will take place at Charis Books with an option to watch virtually, and some months the event will be fully virtual, so be sure to check the Charis event calendar for details.
