The New Mexico Book Awards and Drift Exchange cordially invite you to join them and a grip of recent winners and finalists for an event celebrating some of the best local books!
For over 2 decades, the competition has, in the words of Paul Rhetts, sought “to uncover and honor the best in New Mexico books.” and this shindig aims to do just that! Peruse the honorees’ work and what you’ll instantly discover is the breadth of talents and voices across scores of genres right in our own backyard! And it’s yet another in Drift Exchange’s passionate curation and deep commitment to create a “platform for artists, musicians, and cultural workers in New Mexico” in their gorgeous upstairs space overlooking Central Avenue — the Mother Road herself, Route 66.
DrunkSkull will be there with Psalms From The Badlands (our finalist in poetry last year), the DrunkSkull Sidewalk Cinema, and running a little giveaway for attendees — so come on by, check out the scene, and get yourself entered for a chance to win some books and whatnot!
