Poems on Parts of a Wondrous Whole

Mapping Worcester in Poetry has teamed up with Cantor Art Gallery’s current exhibit, Room of Wonders: A Worcester Wunderkammer, to host a poetry reading that explores collective experiences of the city’s public spaces. All the poems were composed for MWiP’s 2023 “Poems in and out of Places” contest, and like many works in the exhibit, they explore how parts relate to a whole. Poets will include Joe Fusco Jr., Anna Gold, Kate Gregoire, Carla Morrissey, Nancy Baillie Strong, Paul Szlosek, Cathy Taylor, Jerry Waller, Jill Watts, Ashley Wonder, and D Zeutas-Broer.
