Nestled on the scenic shores of Cape Cod, Provincetown has long been a haven for artists, poets, and literary enthusiasts. The coastal town will play host to a captivating evening of words as Stelios Mormoris and Christy Cashman take the stage to share their literary treasures.
“The Oculus”: A Poetic Journey Beyond Boundaries
Stelios Mormoris, a man of many talents and boundless creativity, will unveil his debut collection of poetry, “The Oculus.” With poems that possess a unique muscular power, Stelios invites readers to peer through the lens of his words and explore the rich vistas that surround us all. In his poetic realm, the ordinary transforms into the extraordinary, as humble everyday objects ascend to the divine, while the divine itself is humbled and humanized.
Born in New York and living most of his life in the vibrant city of Paris, Stelios Mormoris spent much of his life working as an executive in the beauty industry. Now, as the Chief Executive Officer of Scent Beauty, Inc., he brings the same creative energy to perfumes and fragrances as he does to his poetry. But Stelios is far from a one-dimensional artist. He studied architecture at Princeton University and later earned his MBA from INSEAD in Fontainebleau, France.
Beyond the boardrooms and scent labs, Stelios has generously lent his time and expertise to several organizations, serving on the boards of the French Cultural Center of Boston, ACT-UP, Historic New England, and The Fragrance Foundation. As if that weren’t enough to fill his plate, he’s also a contemporary artist renowned for his abstract oil paintings.
Stelios’s interests span far and wide, from the adrenaline of rugby to the serenity of sailing and gardening. Yet, at the core of it all, his passion for reading and writing poetry remains unwavering.
“The Truth About Horses”: A Tale of Equine Enchantment
But the evening doesn’t stop with Stelios Mormoris. Sharing the stage is another talented scribe, Christy Cashman, who will be presenting her recently published book, “The Truth About Horses.” In this enchanting work, Cashman takes readers on a ride through the world of these magnificent creatures, exploring the profound connection between humans and horses.
Guiding the Literary Ship: Jane Seymour
Guiding the evening’s literary ship with grace and charisma is none other than the legendary Actress Jane Seymour. Her voice and presence will add a touch of star-studded glamor to the event, making it an occasion to remember.
