Birdhouse Books and Christopher Luna welcome Morgan Paige to May’s First Friday Poetry Night!
First Friday Poetry Night! is a poetry series featuring an everchanging slate of talented local poets hosted by Birdhouse Books and Christopher Luna. Catch us each First Friday at 7pm in the heart of VDA’s Art Walk. Drop by early to browse the books, soak in the art, and pick up some delicious treats upstairs at Short & Sweet before the show.
Morgan Paige is a poet, visual artist and entrepreneur living in the woods in so-called Washington State. Her recently self-published book of memoir poetry, Blue Morpho, details her journey to Costa Rica in 2018 to work with Ayahuasca to gain self knowledge while understanding how to transmute past trauma into acceptance and love.
In 2020, Paige joined Christopher Luna as co-host for Ghost Town Poetry Open Mic, happening every second Thursday at Art at the Cave in downtown Vancouver, WA. Ghost Town Poetry celebrated 20 years in November 2024.
Paige launched a retreat center in summer 2024 on the river in Kalama, WA centered around nature and creative community, hosting wellness retreats and family gatherings in spring/summer and an artist residency in the fall/winter months.
