Poetry Event

Where Poetry and Art Boldly Interact!

Anatomy of the World

Poetry Reading and Ekphrastic Prompt 

with Celia Meade

Saturday March 30, 2024

3:30–4:30 PM

 

Come enjoy the poetry of Celia Meade, an MFA graduate (writing) of Sarah Lawrence College, and an MFA graduate (painting) of the University of Calgary who comes to us from Canada by way of New York. She was runner up for the Raven Chapbook award (2022) and is widely published in literary magazines. D. Nurkse, author of A Country of Strangers, says “Empathetic, seeking truths as volatile as our lives, and deeply realized, Anatomy of the World is a book that will last.” Diana Hayes, author of Sapphire and the Hollow Bone, says “These are bold, muscular poems that do not shy away from the inner and underworlds of humanity.” During this reading, attendees will have the opportunity to try their hand at poetry prompted from a piece of art in the gallery. There’s more about Celia at celiameade.com.
