PORT HADLOCK — Tess Gallagher of Port Angeles and Carlos Reyes of Portland, Ore., will engage in conversation — with each other and with their audience — and share their poetry in a free event at the Jefferson County Library on June 12.
The 6:30 p.m. program is open to the public at the library, 620 Cedar Ave.
Gallagher and Reyes share a connection to Ireland: She spends part of the year in her cottage in County Sligo while he lives part-time in his 300-year-old place in County Clare.
