Poetry in All Places
This program gives the public a chance to hear about two non-traditional poetry programs. There will be a chance to hear from the poets themselves, so it will be a poetry experience that will encourage people to think about poetry arising from areas not expected. Also, I think the program will serve as an important public performance for the Women's Writing Project. It's beneficial for the women poets, who are former inmates, to have a voice and also to receive some recognition for their efforts as they reenter our communities.
