When the Poets Gather: A Reading of Acclaimed Poets

Six nationally acclaimed poets. One rare Portland evening.

Brad Aaron Modlin, Emmett Wheatfall, Georgia Popoff, Christopher Luna, John Rosenwald, and Ann Arbor each bring their own unique voice, a lifetime of craft, and a deep generosity to the page. On this evening, they share the same stage – reading, reflecting, and reminding us why poetry matters.

A rare gathering: six distinct voices, one room, one evening of exquisite language that’ll stay with you.

This is a public event, open to all. You are welcome here.

All six poets are Guest Teachers at The Stafford Challenge Conference, June 18–21 at Lewis & Clark College.

ASL interpretation provided.

This evening is presented by The Stafford Challenge and Wild Poet Events in partnership with Oregon Humanities and Lewis & Clark College. Books will be for sale, and a book signing with poets will follow the program.
