Attend a First Friday book launch party at 7 p.m. Jan. 6 with Christopher Luna, Toni Lumbrazo Luna and Angelo Luna at Birdhouse Books, 1001 Main St., Vancouver. The event celebrates the publication of Christopher Luna’s “Voracity.” Luna, co-host of Ghost Town Poetry Open Mic and co-founder of Printed Matter Vancouver, has just released his this new poetry collection from Lightship Press, and will be joined by his wife Toni Lumbrazo Luna, co-founder of Printed Matter Vancouver, and his son, Angelo Luna, who co-authored the father-son poetry collection, “Exchanging Wisdom.”
“Driven by Hope” is Lumbrazo Luna’s third book of poetry, offering glimpses into the lives of people she has met throughout her career as a social worker and career coach.
