LEWISTON — Three Maine poets, Megan Grumbling, Gibson Fay-LeBlanc, and Chris Seid, will participate in a program called “The Poet As Art: A Poetry Series” at 7 p.m. Tuesday in Callahan Hall at Lewiston Public Library, 200 Lisbon St.

The series is a new collaboration between the library and L/A Arts.

“The goal of the poetry series is to bring poets to the Lewiston-Auburn area to share their original works and processes with the community,” an L/A Arts release states. “With each performance in the new series, poets will engage in a dialogue with audience members regarding their works. Books published by the poets will be available for purchase on site.”

Grumbling’s work has appeared in Poetry, The Iowa Review, and The Antioch Review. She teaches writing at the University of New England and Southern Maine Community College and edits reviews for The Café Review.

Fay-LeBlanc is a writer and teacher. His first collection of poems, “Death of a Ventriloquist,” was chosen by Lisa Russ Spaar for the Vassar Miller Prize and published in 2012. He is the poetry editor of Maine Magazine and is at work on a novel.

Seid was born and raised in Iowa. He lived in New Hampshire, Cape Cod, Southern California and Brooklyn before moving to Maine in 2002. He lives in Yarmouth with his two children and works as a freelance writer
