Massachusetts Statewide Poetry Calendar

To Emily Dickinson, phosphorescence, was a divine spark and the illuminating light behind learning — it was volatile, but transformative in nature. Produced by the Emily Dickinson Museum, the Phosphorescence Poetry Reading Series celebrates contemporary creativity that echoes Dickinson’s own revolutionary poetic voice. The Series features established and emerging poets whose work and backgrounds represent the diversity of the flourishing contemporary poetry scene. Join us for the virtual event 8/17 to hear from poets around the world as they read their work and discuss what poetry and Dickinson mean to them.

This month's poets are:

• Yamini Pathak
• Ilan Stavans
• Devanshi Khetarpal

The virtual event is free and registration is required.
