Instagram LIVE RHINO Poetry
December 3 - 5, 7pm CT RHINO Poetry is celebrating Chicago poets' anthology, "Wherever I’m At: An Anthology of Chicago Poetry". The MC is our wonderful, Liz O'Connell-Thompson. This event is that Elizabeth O'Connell-Thompson and I were brainstorming and testing earlier this month! I had a chance to interview Jessica Walsh. She is the author of the poetry collection, Book of Gods and Grudges. Elizabeth O'Connell-Thompson and I are brainstorming and testing our new online reading event for RHINO Poetry. We are going to have a weekend in December celebrating poetry by our Instagram Live. Stay tuned!
Liz is wonderful. Thank you so much for getting me out from my comfort zone and introducing me to a new technology. I attended the fanciest poetry party ever!
There was a poetry reading by Jamila Woods (she created a cento poem by award recipients), live music (Chicago jazz & blues, and fantastic rock), and chatting with wonderful poets & artists at Museum Of Contemporary Art Chicago (MCA Chicago). I met recipients CAConrad, Angela Jackson, and Sharon Olds. They were so warm and kind. Thank you so much for hosting this cultural event at Poetry Foundation! I am super honored to witness these events in CHICAGO! Currently, the Poetry Foundation is celebrating its 110th anniversary. And, I was really happy that people recognized my voice from WBEZ91.5 Chicago’s NPR station's poetry week in October. Some people complemented me on my poem, "Lake Michigan". RHINO Reviews was featured on the podcast Comics for The Apocalypse hosted by Samuel George in London!!
Thank you so much for featuring our magazine. Press play on the “Allan Haverholm 2” episode and find RHINO Poetry at 31:40. |
