Huge gratitude to Leah Elimeliah, the mastermind of WordShedNYC, for curating this reading and Q&A, 1455’s last official event of 2021! (Leah also participated in the 2021 Summer Fest and her poetry appears in the latest issue of 1455’s Movable Type.)
I enjoyed reading from (and discussing) The Blackened Blues, and I especially enjoyed the Open Mic reading that followed (featuring some other folks whose poetry is featured in Issue 8 of Movable Type).
We’re already busy lining up a typically diverse and wonderful series of readings and conversations for 2022, and you can get a sneak preview via our Events page.
Thank you for being part of the 1455 Family, and if you want to learn more, get involved, or support our efforts to produce free programming that celebrates the art of storytelling, we’d love to hear from you!
