Nancy Takacs and Jan Minich at City Art
Price poets Nancy Takacs and Jan Minich will read from their poems April 7th at 7:00 at the Salt Lake Public Library as part of the City Art Reading Series. Nancy Takacs teaches English at the College of Eastern Utah. She has two books of poetry: Preserves by City Art Press, 2004; and a chapbook Pale Blue Wings by Limberlost Press, 2001. A chapbook, Juniper, is forthcoming from Limberlost Press. The recipient of a 2005 Ucross residency, The Discovery/Nation award, Two Individual Utah artist grants, and other residencies and poetry awards, she has also taught a poetry program for male inmates at the Central Utah Correctional Facility through the Utah Arts Council. Formerly from Bayonne, New Jersey, she lives in Wellington, Utah. Her poetry examines natural landscapes and their inhabitants, family violence, relationship, gender, and Catholicism. Her work also sometimes juxtaposes the landscapes of New Jersey and Utah. Recently retired from the College of Eastern Utah, Jan Minich had his book The Letters of Silver Dollar published by City Art. He has been published in numerous literary journals. City Art is sponsored by the Utah Arts Council, the Salt Lake City Arts Council, Zoo, Arts, and Parks, X-mission, and audience donations.
