Civic Poet work

I’m launching a public poetry campaign on April 1 for The City of Seattle’s ARTS office in my role as Civic Poet. The campaign will feature the work of poets Bryan Wilson, Kathya Alexander, Bryna Antonia Cortes, Cindy Luong, and Joe Nasta and involve taking over 7 sites around the city, including:

  • Wa Na Wari
  • Slide Gallery
  • Seattle Public Library (downtown and Southpark)
  • Friends of Little Saigon
  • Bureau of Fearless Ideas
  • Seattle Municipal Tower Gallery

This public poetry program is made possible by the Academy of American Poets with funds from the Mellon Foundation. This project was also supported by The Windrose Fund.
