Thursday, February 26, 2026, 6:00pm - 7:30pm
Woodberry Poetry Room (Lamont Library, Room 330)
Open to the public, Reading/Lecture,

The Woodberry Poetry Room  invites you to a warm, welcoming midwinter party and dynamic group reading, featuring poets Sherah Bloor, Nate Klug, Esther Kondo Heller, KÁNYIN Olorunnisola, Anna Ross, and Talin Tahajian. Our popular  Boston Originals  series celebrates the breathtaking range of aesthetics and poetics being practiced by writers who are working, dwelling, and/or creating in or around Boston at this time.  
 

Each of our honored guests will read for approximately 8 minutes, then we will all kick back, chat, eat food, listen to music, buy (and share) books, and fortify ourselves for the year ahead. We also invite audience members to bring their own new books, as well as any fliers related to upcoming events, workshops, and/or political demonstrations that they will be hosting or engaged in this Spring.  

 
In-Person Attendance: Woodberry Poetry Room, Lamont Library, 6:00pm. Free and open to the public. 

 

Online Attendance: Livestreaming available via the Woodberry Poetry Room YouTube Channel.
