Out of Season – Poets Creating Conversation

The air is getting crisper. Leaves are falling. Poets may or may not be talking about the weather and changing seasons. Or maybe we’re just talking about living in America.

This event will be held outdoors. Dress for the weather. It’s New England, so you may need mittens or you may need a tank top . . .

Notes for poets interested in participating: As usual, Poets Creating Conversation challenges you to provoke and bear witness as we circle loosely around a theme in the hope of creating a broad, multi-dimensional “conversation” between poems, poets, and audience.

For this event, WXW is requiring that participating poets be fully vaccinated for Covid-19. Everyone – per local regulations – audience and poets will be asked to wear face masks when maintaining 6 feet of distance is not possible.

WordXWord encourages poets to accept a greater role in the cultural landscape, to provoke and bear witness, to use their voice to advocate for social justice, to act as agents of change, and to add their voices in celebration of the full potential of the human spirit.
