THREAD CITY POETS
The THREAD CITY POETS kicked out the jambs in Julia de
Burgos Park in Willimantic on Thursday night 26 July. The rain threatened but did not arrive during
the outdoor reading. Thread city poets
were represented by Edmond Chibeau, Kathleen McElroy, Claudia McGhee, Lisa
Sornberger, Barbara LaFlesh & Willa Correnti (aka “Other”).
Thread City Poets was originally formed by
Sandy Taylor, founder of CURBSTONE PRESS.
An “open mic” followed the performance. Readers at the open mic were Merle
Potchinsky, Jeremy Schwartz (who read translations from the Hebrew), Chris
Cooke, Christian Sammartino and Yujikay (who read in both Spanish and English). The season finale will be 23 August with
Michael Bradford. An open mic will
follow.
Poetry in the Park is supported by
the Curbstone Foundation and the Town of Willimantic.
