Sharing works that delight, provoke, inspire and rouse, the Poetic Tuesdays series turns lunchtime into an oasis of creative expression. Lighting up Jessie Square with a fabulously curated line-up of poets and musicians, Poetic Tuesdays offer a vivifying midday breather for neighborhood groups, students, office workers on break and out-of-towners looking for respite from The City’s hustle and bustle. Tuesday, August 19th features D. Kaur, Jamey Williams, Kaylan Black, Camellia Boutros, and Mukethe Kawinzi.

Curated by Nia Pearl, an award-winning poet, writer, and environmental justice advocate working at the intersection of art, activism, and public engagement.
