Free on Zoom
If you’re looking for something to do after the MFA Open House this Thursday, you can catch our very own Kimiko Hahn at this virtual reading and conversation for the New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC), which will explore community building and social change!
| Literary leaders practice fostering communities in all kinds of ways – some quiet, some raucous. Poems can bring communities together to celebrate, to mourn and even to push for change. At this reading, audiences will hear from some of the most seasoned literary artists in the field as they discuss the ways they engage with challenges, both large and small, in their communities. Camille T. Dungy, Kimiko Hahn, Tyehimba Jess and Paul “Con Queso” LaTorre will explore the connection between poetry and social change. Each poet will read their own work, respond to their colleagues’ poetry and share their advice for using verses to advocate for a better future. Register here |
| This event is part of the Dodge Poetry Series |
