Creative Expressions: Poetry Slam #2 - Women’s Voices to Be Heard
Thursday, August 20, 2020
5-6 pm
Note: If you missed our previous sessions or cannot make it this week, all of the sessions are recorded and appear on the website.
Join us for a second evening of listening and learning from the poetic voices of our SUNY Empire State College community. We asked the same poets from our first Poetry Slam to return and share more of their energy, more of their exultation and indignation, more of their poems that embody message or memoir, and more of their narratives that are willful or bear witness. Come hear their voices. Luxuriate in the language of the spoken word.
Featured on Thursday, August 20th will be live readings of poetry submitted by Mindy Kronenberg, Lynn Saum, Marcia Clark, Cecile McIntosh Carless, Rimsah Javed, and Teresa Triola. Our poets will also speak about the meaning of their poems and their creative processes.
Faculty member and award winning poet, Mindy Kronenberg along with Lynn Saum, current graduate student member of the classes of 2018 & 2019 are co-facilitating this 2nd Poetry Slam with host, Lisa D'Adamo-Weinstein.
