[Wgcp-whc] Poet series at Grace Farms

[Mahan, David]

Dear all,

As we contemplate another gathering I wanted to let you all know about a special event coming up at the newly opened Grace Farms down in SW CT. (If you haven't been down there you would really enjoy it.) The poet Ilya Kaminsky is the next poet in their series, discussing his anthology The Ecco Anthology of International Poetry on Thursday, March 31, 6:30-8:00 (see below and attached). He follows the first two in this series, Christian Wiman and Fanny Howe. Ilya did a Literature and Spirituality event for the Inst of Sacred Music a couple of years ago -- a fascinating and accomplished poet, and person (he is totally deaf).

More soon about another of our own gatherings.

David

Subject: [Wgcp-whc] Another WGCP gathering this spring?

We had a lovely evening together at Laura Manuelidis' home on Feb 25, which included good food and drink, lively conversation, and poetry reading -- and many thanks again to Laura for hosting this. Those of us present wondered about doing something like this again after Easter, perhaps in April, and so wanted to gather opinions or ideas from you all. Shall we try another meeting/gathering, and if so does a weeknight work or is another time better? What do you recommend we do?

With thanks,

David, for Laura et al.
