Poets Creating Conversation is an ongoing series of events that invites and challenges poets to circle loosely around a theme or issue in the current social discourse to create a broad, multi-dimensional “conversation” between poems, poets, and audiences. By sharing personal stories, observations, challenges, moments of inspiration, and hope, we weave a tapestry of creative voices that makes us stronger and helps us individually and collectively navigate the way forward.
