Join Confluence Poets in our annual celebration of National Poetry Month on Friday, April 23!
The Academy of American Poets started this event in 1996, and six years ago Confluence Poets began its celebration. We were thrilled in 2015 when a seven-year-old from Seattle joined us to read a poem! This year, we hope people of all ages will be inspired to write a poem, or find one they wish to read at this online event.
On Friday evening, January 22 at 6:30, several of the Confluence Poets will participate in our annual celebration of William Stafford’s life and poetry, in this event sponsored by and produced in conjunction with Confluence Gallery.
“These poems carry a clear and simple joy, which in our era of worry and distancing transforms into genuine solace.” ~Peter Donahue, author of Madison House
