For the sixth year, the Northeast Storytellers host a special event to commemorate Robert Frost, longtime poet laureate of Vermont. This year the event will be hosted in conjunction with the St. Johnsbury Athenæum via Zoom on Sunday, April 25th from 4:00-5:15 pm. The "Remembering Robert Frost" gathering is dedicated to the memory, poetic works, and legacy of the famed Vermont resident.
Brief presentations will be made by notable poets in the region, including former Vermont poet laureate, Chard deNiord, and current president of the Poetry Society of Vermont, George Longenecker. Director of the Poetry Society of New Hampshire Zoom events, Jimmy Pappas, will also make a presentation. Depending on remaining time, other event attendees will be invited to share readings, reflections, history, anecdotes, and experiences they've had with Robert Frost, his works, and his legacy.
This event is free and open to the public and all are welcome to attend online. Please see the related event listing in the adult events at the Athenæum website, www.stjathenaeum.org, to register and receive the Zoom meeting code.
