Taos Reading
Bill Nevins is the author of AWE, a book of poetry and prose, a freelance journalist at The Paper, staff reporter at The Enchanted Circle News, and works at Green Left.

Art Goodtimes, poet, basketweaver, journalist and five-term
San Miguel County Commissioner (Green Party) who retired in 2016, is known for his amanita-spotted red Toyota truck at the head of the annual Telluride Mushroom Festival Parade, for his booming voice that can also be soft and soothing, and for his practice of weaving baskets during county commissioner meetings. He is back from a three-year challenge with cancer, continuing his life’s work of building community through relationships and creating platforms for poetry.
Goodtimes learned “the passing of the gourd” from Dolores LaChapelle, who founded the Way of the Mountain Learning Center in Silverton, Colorado, back in the Seventies. A gourd circle “is really about really listening,” Goodtimes said,
"as well as performing." It usually follows the readings
giving everyone a chance, peer-to-peer, to share their own words.
