We’re throwing a poetry party Sunday, December 20, and you’re invited! Bubbly donated by Busboys and Poets! Anniversary cake donated by Girardot’s Crumbs!
We invited everyone who’s ever read in the series to come back and to read. So many brilliant poets have been part of the series over the years – here’s the stunning line-up:
Luis Alberto Ambroggio, Elizabeth Acevedo, Michelle Chan Brown, Philip Clark, Donna Denize, David Ebenbach, Danielle Evennou, Niki Herd, Ailish Hopper, Esther Iverem, Reuben Jackson, Yvette Neisser Moreno, Barbara Jean Orton, Kathleen …O’Toole, Maritza Rivera, Joseph Ross, Susan Scheid, Tim’m West, Mary-Sherman Willis, Rosemary Winslow
We’re incredibly grateful to Busboys and Poets for supporting the series and providing such a gorgeous space for poets’ words. So much gratitude as well to groups who’ve partnered on the series: Letras Latinas in particular, and also Beltway Poetry Quarterly, the Goethe Institut, Kundiman, Cave Canem, Furious Flower, Fall for the Book, and more.
Special shout-out to past hosts, Melissa Tuckey and Regie Cabico, who will also join us on December 20.
As we think back on ten years of the series, it strikes us that Sunday Kind of Love, like Split This Rock Poetry Festival, stands for what is powerful and necessary in American poetry today: a gorgeous, vibrant diversity of all kinds, a welcoming spirit, a fierce dedication to poetry as a force of love and challenge and hope in our world. We hope you can join us!
Tickets are $5 and can be purchased online the day of the event or at the door: http://bit.ly/1lMok7x
