Leanna Day’s poetry has been called “a raw work of art, capturing the complexities of the female experience.” Immerse yourself in her evocative words as she reads selected pieces from her debut collection When the Moon Rises. We’ll have a live poetry reading, Q&A session, book signing, and light refreshments.

Leanna Day is a Panamanian-American author based on Oahu. She also teaches yoga and barre at Breathe Yoga & Barre and Power Yoga Hawai‘i. Leanna is a graduate of Northern Arizona University and is currently pursuing an MFA in Poetry at Southern New Hampshire University. When she is not working, she enjoys gardening, snuggling her dogs, and eating cookies.
