John Mark Eberhart is the Author of two collections of poetry,
Broken Time (2008) and
NIGHT WATCH (2005). His work has appeared in numerous publications, including New Letters, New Millennium Writings,
Pleiades, and the Midwest Review. While John
Mark honed his writing skills, Ken
Eberhart mastered the art of music. As a premier
percussionist, Ken earned his master's degree in music from the University
of Missouri-Kansas City Conservatory. John Mark received his bachelor's
degree from the University of Missouri and his master's degree from the
University of Missouri-Kansas City.
Ken will perform
on marimba, hand drums, and other instruments to complement the motifs in
John Mark's poetry.
The family
collaboration won't stop with the Eberhart brothers. John Mark's
brother-in-law, Nick Drimmel, will perform on keyboard; and Sherri Eberhart,
John Mark's wife and an accomplished veteran of the stage, will perform a
snippet from the couple's upcoming project, Blood of Eden.
"We thought it
would be fun this time around to collaborate rather than me standing up
there pontificating," said John Mark. "(It will be) much more
enjoyable for the audience."
A 6:00 PM, Reception will precede
the Event. Admission is FREE!
