Join us in the Community Room on April 30 at 7:00pm for a Poetry Month reading. Share your favorite poem.
By a "favorite poem" we mean a poem you love, maybe a poem you’ve read numerous times, a poem that means a lot to you. We are following the guidelines established by Robert Pinsky's Favorite Poem Project, so we ask that you don’t read an original poem, or a poem by a family member. Rather, choose a poem from the great tradition of world poetry, a poem published in an anthology or published by an established publisher.
Critically acclaimed poet David Graham will be Master of Ceremonies.
Each reader will have about 5 minutes to introduce the poem, let us know why this poem is important to you, and to read the poem.
People wishing to read should email Dan Hubbs at: dhubbs1@sals.edu. The first fifteen responders will be guaranteed a five minute slot to read and to share why they chose the poem. Time permitting, additional people will have a chance to read.
All are welcome to attend and listen!
