National Poetry Month: "Favorite Poems Reading "

  • West Falmouth Library 575 West Falmouth Hi (map)

To honor National Poetry Month, Calliope Poetry and the West Falmouth Library will host its 4th annual "Favorite Poems" event on Sunday, April 27, from 3 to 5 PM. Twelve community residents, from students to elected leaders, will read a “favorite poem” and express what makes it one of their favorites.

The "Favorite Poems Project" was created by US Poet Laureate Robert Pinsky. He envisioned these community readings as giving us a chance to hear people from all walks of life read the poem they turn to for comfort, inspiration and joy. You walk away from hearing each poem read aloud with an appreciation of why poetry matters and how poems bring communities together in this shared experience.
