“Habitat Library is thrilled to partner with the Stiles African American Heritage Center for Camille T. Dungy’s reading and signing of her new book of poetry, America, a Love Story on May 23rd.”
“The Hudson Valley Writers Center is proud to present a monthly craft series featuring four award-winning writers & beloved teachers. Each writer will share insights gleaned from decades of devoting themselves to studying the craft of poetry or prose. Unlike a workshop environment that prioritizes student work and student-led conversation in single or weekly sessions, these monthly lectures will provide the much-desired chance to listen to some of today’s most renowned writers’ valuable wisdom, uninterrupted, and spaced out intentionally over the course of five months.”
“For nearly three decades, guests of Poets House have crossed the Brooklyn Bridge at sunset, reveling in the words of Walt Whitman, Marianne Moore, Langston Hughes, and other historic poetic luminaries who have paid tribute to New York City. Celebrated contemporary poets serve as guides on this journey, reading their predecessors’ work as well as their own writings beneath John Augustus Roebling’s iconic arches. The journey from Manhattan to Brooklyn traditionally closes with a reading of Walt Whitman’s “Crossing Brooklyn Ferry,” followed by a celebratory dinner enlivened by more poetry.
This rare gathering of poets and poetry lovers is Poets House’s annual benefit. Ticket sales to the Poetry Walk support all that we do, including our wide range of programs and services, most of which are free to the public.”
