First Light: Poems for the New Year

Join us for the first poetry reading of the year at The Poets Corner—a poetry reading and discussion with five poets reading work to welcome in the new year in community, inviting in both joy and sorrow, and most importantly a chorus of uplifting voices. Each poet will be read from their own work, and also introduce a poem by a poet they admire, whose work uplifts them in their own lives.

We’ll be joined by Margaret Haberman, co-author of To the Point and Back: Swimming Poems (2024), Didi Jackson, author of My Infinity (Red Hen Press, 2024), Alison Luterman, author of In the Time of Great Fires (Catamaran, 2020), Migwi Mwangi, MFA Writing Candidate at NYU. and Maya Stein, author of How We Are Not Alone.

This event is FREE and will be live on Zoom at 4:00 PM EST
