A guided reading and participatory discussion of a John Ashbery poem—in honor of his centennial—led by scholar & translator Leonard Nalencz.
Deep Reading Night is a relaxed, screen-free evening where we’ll read and discuss one poem by the late John Ashbery, a celebrated writer who spent much of his life devoted to creative communities in the Upper Hudson Valley. The poem will be chosen for its openness, emotional range, and relevance to many different lives. Facilitator Leonard Nalencz will guide us through reading it aloud. Free. Donations encouraged but not required.
