October 26th: Jade Sylvan Features



Stone Soup Poetry meets from 8-10 p.m. every Monday at the Out of The Blue Art Gallery (located on 106 Prospect Street in Cambridge) with an open mike sign-up at 7:30 p.m. On October 26th, the venue celebrates the return of Jade Sylvan, who will be promoting the release of her first full-length book of poetry.

Jade Sylvan is a geek. Born of a family of scientists, she spent her adult education studying world religion, esoteric mysticism, the occult, sustainable design, and rock & roll history. After college, she traveled for a long time, seeing such wonders as the Spanish Mediterranean, the Swiss Alps, and William Faulkner’s grave in Oxford, Mississippi. She therefore knows most of the best bars in the Western world and how to pour a proper glass of absinthe in both the French and Bohemian styles. When she settled in Boston in 2007, she began seriously writing poetry. This tour celebrates the release of The Spark Singer, her first full-length collection of poetry. Jade believes this is just the beginning.
