SUMMARY:A Virtual Thirsty Lab with Glenn D'Alessio
DESCRIPTION:The Thirsty Lab poetry reading\, normally based out of Princeton\, Mass.\, continues to meet virtually. On Tuesday\, March 25th\, 2025 Glenn D’Alessio will be the featured reader. Please Click Here to register. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGlenn D’Alessio plays flute in the Worcester State Jazz Band\, and in the Florence MA Community Band. He was a past college instructor about energy conservation\, and also green building\, who is still a carpenter and builder from West Brookfield\, MA. For several years he was a volunteer with the “Worcester Energy Barn Raisers” (WEBr) who weatherized numerous places — weatherization being like tightening a ship to keep water\, ants\, and rot out; and during the winter\, the heat in. His Finishing Line Press chapbooks are: In My Sea Cliff Years of Innocence; A Carpenter’s Building\, Homes for His Poems; and\, Some Tanka in Thanks to Elroy\, Not the Most Cantankerous Dog. Other poems of his have appeared ‘Here and There\,’ which hopefully sounds like quite a journal.A full length manuscript he has high hopes for is\, “Between Merwin and Greger\, Overtones of Poetry.” Poems there play off of quotes from both W.S. Merwin’s\, Migration\, and Debora Greger’s\, The 1002nd

He is the author of the recent poetic novella\, “Suffer For This\,” from Moon Tide Press and the full-length poetry collection\, “City of Insomnia\,” from Write Bloody Publishing. His work has appeared in numerous journals and anthologies\, including The Chiron Review\, The Collagist\, Barrelhouse\, Pearl\, Spillway and The Banyan Review. He is currently the features editor of the Telegram & Gazette and the editor of Worcester Magazine. He’s an Aquarius\, with all that entails. \n\n\n\n* \n\n\n\nPaul Szlosek is a poet\, photographer\, blogger\, magician\, and “cranial fermenter” (a term he has personally coined) born in Southbridge\, Massachusetts\, but currently residing in the nearby metropolis of Worcester. A recipient of the 2001 Jacob Knight Award for Poetry\, the 2023 Stanley Kunitz Medal\, and the 2024 Frank O’Hara Poetry Prize\, he has served as co-founder and co-host of both the Poet’s Parlor and Poetorium at Starlite open mic & reading series. His poetry have appeared in numerous local & national print & online publications including The Worcester Review\, Worcester Magazine\, Radius\, Sahara\, Concrete Wolf\, Soul-Lit\, Diner\, Poetry as Promised\, & Silkworm. Paul is probably best known in the Central Massachusetts poetry community for his fanatical obsession with obscure poetry forms\, and has invented his own including the ziggurat\, the streetbeatina\, the hodgenelle\, the lux\, and the singsangsong which he often shares with readers on his poetry blog Paul’s Poetry Playground @ https://playground.poetry.blog/. He has also gained a legendary reputation\, for some inexplicable reason\, as a poet whom no one wants to follow in an open reading. Paul’s first collection of poetry tentatively titled Pretense\, Portents\, & the Farmer’s Son will be published by Metaphysical Fox Press in the hopefully not-too-distant future.

SUMMARY:Poetry Reading: The Fairy Tale That Was Not Told
DESCRIPTION:ArtsWorcester and the Worcester County Poetry Association invite you to a reading of poems inspired by photographs in Mari Saxon’s The Fairy Tale That Was Not Told on Saturday\, February 1\, 2025 from 11:00 AM – 12:30 PM. The poetry reading will take place on the seventh floor of the Printers Building in Worcester\, MA at 44 Portland Street. Guests are invited to regroup back on the first floor\, in the ArtsWorcester East Gallery\, to view Mari’s photographs that inspired the poems. The Fairy Tale That Was Not Told is on view in the ArtsWorcester galleries (Jan. 16 – Feb. 16) as part of ArtsWorcester’s Artist Shoebox exhibition series. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA “surrealistic fairytale” is how artist Mari Saxon describes her photographs\, rich in storytelling and delightfully up for interpretation. The Worcester County Poetry Association (WCPA) in partnership with the Worcester Writers’ Collective (WCC) organized a series of three workshops\, which were held during regular WWC meeting hours (Tuesdays from 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM) at the Jean McDonough Arts Center. The writers used Saxon’s artfully staged photos in addition to their own favorite childhood stories\, personal lore and literary style to pay homage to The Fairy Tale That Was Not Told\, creating and editing work over the course of the three workshops. \n\n\n\nThe poetry reading event will take place on the seventh floor of the Printers Building\, and a slideshow will feature Mari’s corresponding photographs that inspired the poems. Then\, guests will be invited back down to the first floor galleries to see the photographs on view in the ArtsWorcester East Gallery. \n\n\n\nElevators and stairs are accessible up to the reading on the seventh floor of the building. Light refreshments will be available. Parking is available at the Worcester Public Library (McGrath) Lot\, Federal Plaza Garage\, Worcester Common Garage\, and Pearl-Elm Garage. Metered street parking is also available. On weekends\, and on weekdays after 5:00 PM\, visitors may park in the Printers Building parking lot free of charge. Please do not park in the lot across the street from the Printers Building; you will be immediately towed. \n\n\n\nThis event is in collaboration with the Worcester County Poetry Association\, a nonprofit organization founded in 1971. WCPA and ArtsWorcester share the goal of advancing the creative energy of Central Massachusetts\, and are thrilled to be fusing visual and literary art to produce this event. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nGET YOUR FREE TICKETS
