THURSDAY May 4th at 3PM: CLOSE READINGS IN A VIRTUAL SPACE with Gillian Conoley - Free online poetry workshop

This FREE, participatory event (taking place via Zoom) features ⁠ Gillian Conoley, one of our favorite poets, leads an intimate, virtual group thinking-and-reading-through of “The Present/” by Lisa Robertson. Neither explicitly teaching nor explaining, our special guest poet will serve as your expert tour-guide to explore this featured poem as a group. Whether already well-versed in the “close reading” of poems or having never been quite sure you've been "getting it," CLOSE READINGS IN A VIRTUAL SPACE provides a digital gathering for taking a refreshing deep dive into poetry. Actively participate or simply listen and learn!
