QC MFA faculty member Ammiel Alcalay will be appearing at the St. Mark’s Poetry Project this March!
Mosab Abu Toha and Ammiel Alcalay‘s poetry bring new meaning to the act of witnessing, writing with and for the dead, summoning the living in a call to imagine anew—form an image of another world lying below the rubble of this world’s unending devastation.
Since 1966, The Poetry Project has expanded access to literature, education, and opportunities for sharing one’s creative work in a counter-hierarchical, radically open space and community. Premised on the vision that cultural action at the local level can inspire broader shifts in public consciousness, The Project is committed to developing and collaborating on replicable program models that challenge persistent social narratives, especially through the verbal reframing made possible in poetry.
This event will also be livestreamed for free on the Project’s YouTube channel.
