2025-09-07 14:00 - 15:00 | F – George T. Dennis Visual & Performing Arts Center Lower Lobby, 3575 College Rd., Harrisburg, IL, 62946
Reviews:
“Remember when the spoken words of a great orator could hold you transfixed while dreaming of the
possibilities of a greater tomorrow? This is that! Each poem he reads and each story he tells connects us
with a common experience, a moment of grief, the memories of a loving parent, and a time of transition.
This is more than a poetry reading, it is a deeply moving spiritual experience.”
-Rev. John Holst, Pastor
Zion United Church of Christ, Marion, Illinois
“Glenn Poshard’s presentation is a mix of his personal and family recollections, all steeped in his lifelong
affection for Southern Illinois. He and Jo continue to support disadvantaged children through their
philanthropic efforts, this time through his reading of materials which enlighten and inspire. I have heard
him twice, and I confess i was moved to tears both times. I thank him for bravely taking on this project, all in
support of our community’s families and children.”
-Dr. Marsha Ryan, President
Artspace 304, Carbondale, Illinois
“Attending the poetry reading presented by Glenn Poshard was a transcendent experience for me. He does
more than “read a poem”- he brings the listeners into a world of music, reflection, hope and commitment to
justice and joy. Dr. Poshard’s poetry should be considered a gift to all who gather at his “welcome table.”
-Rev. Dr. Joseph A. Brown, SJ: PhD.
Catholic Priest, Published Poet, and SIU-C Professor, Carbondale, Illinois
“Poshard’s poetry reading unfolds meaningful life lessons, delivered with heartfelt passion. You come away
with an appreciation for turning points in our lives that encourages perspective and overcoming. It is an
hour well spent. You will feel better and glad you made the time.”
-Carl Walworth, Librarian
Mattoon Public Library, Mattoon, Illinois
“Glenn is a well known political leader but this is not political speech. You will enjoy the verbal picture he paints
of early life living in southern Illinois and the people who gave birth to his faith and values. I strongly urge anyone
interested in supporting the “rural food deserts” all around us, to attend one of his presentations, or make space for
this moving, family friendly event in your church, civic center, local theater, or community hall.”
-Rev. John Annable, Pastor
University Baptist Church, Carbondale, Illinois
