Arnaudville Potluck and Open Mic: "Gumbo"

Celebrate the release of longtime Country Roads contributor Jonathan Olivier's new book for LSU Press's Louisiana True series, Gumbo, at the Arnaudville Potluck and Open Mic in NUNU's white box space. In addition to a reading and book signing with Olivier, hear fascinating tidbits from sassafras forager and filé expert Dustin Fuqua, author and illustrator of the children's book Gumbo Weather Mary Beth Broussard and Paul Schexnyder, and poems about gumbo from Stephanie Pitre and Alecia Lewis. And if all that talk about gumbo makes you hungry, gumbo will be available for a suggested donation of $5. 6 pm–8:30 pm. nunucollective.org.
