We at mnartists.org are excited to present the second of this year’s readings celebrating the 2010 mnLIT winners.

The reading and celebration will be Monday, October 18 at the Red Stag Supperclub in Minneapolis from 7 – 9 pm. Admission is free and open to the public.

About your host for the evening: Jeff Johnson is probably not the Jeff Johnson you went to high school with or the Jeff Johnson who fixes your car or that one Jeff Johnson who used to date your sister until she found out about his credit history. He’s definitely not the politician Jeff Johnson. This Jeff Johnson, who lives in Minneapolis with at least 100 other Jeff Johnsons, is a former magazine editor whose work has appeared in such journals as Intro and The Iowa Review. He was also last year’s What Light poetry contest’s grand prize winner.
