Best Summer Poetry Reads for the “Beach”: A Poetry Boost & Discussion

Presented by Gemini Ink Writing Arts Center at Gemini Ink Writing Arts Center

Whether you’re headed to the beach with its sand and sun or want to learn about new poetic voices from the shores of your couch, join Gemini Ink’s Executive Director Alexandra van de Kamp on an exploration of new or newly-discovered titles and her recommendations on recent “Best Reads”! We’ll discuss sample poems from a wide range of poetry collections including Natalie Diaz, Morgan Parker, Urayoán Noel, Barbara Ras, Donika Kelly, Reginald Gibbons, and more. Poets of all levels welcome! Feel free to bring 1-2 poetry books you’ve recently discovered to share with us. You will also be provided a handful of writing prompts inspired by the poems discussed to fuel future writing. Energize your poetry practice this summer with this poetic boost!
