Jimmie B. Keel Regional Library Presents Poetry and Jazz

The poetry and jazz event blended inspired words and cool sounds.

On Sunday, the Jimmie B. Keel Regional Library hosted a poetry and jazz event that was sponsored by the Friends of Jimmie B. Keel Regional Library and the USF Humanities Institute.

The poetry and jazz presentation, which has occurred annually since 2000, featured some of the area’s finest poets accompanied by a jazz flute and stand-up bass duet. Four poets read their work, and the winners of the “Lit Wit 2011 Humorous Poetry Contest” were recognized for their ability to elicit a smile and a laugh through the use of funny prose.

Check out a photo gallery that captured the event.
