Past event
Apr 16, 2019, 7 to 8 PM

A reading with James Crews, Mary Elder-Jacobsen, Megan Buchanan, Alison Prine, Patricia Fontaine, Laura Foley, and Carol Cone.

"Healing the Divide" urges us to embrace the ordinary moments of kindness and connection that fill our days. The anthology features poems by Mark Doty, Ross Gay, Donald Hall, Marie Howe, Naomi Shihab Nye and many others, including our readers. These poets, from all walks of life, and from all over America, prove to us the possibility of creating in our lives what Dr. Martin Luther King called the "beloved community," a place where we see each other as the neighbors we already are.

Free and open to the public. A PoemCity 2019 Event.
