SUMMARY:Annual Gregory Stockmal Reading
DESCRIPTION:The 2022 Annual Gregory Stockmal  in Assumption University’s Curtiss Hall \nAfter a two-year hiatus\, we are excited to once again host the annual Gregory Stockmal Reading on Thursday\, September 22\, 2022.  The event will occur in the Curtis Performance Hall at Assumption University at 7:30 pm.  This year the featured reader will be Martha Collins. \nClick [here] to view the broadside created by artist Anita Cook. \n \nAbout the Reading \nThe Gregory Stockmal Reading was established in 2009 by the Worcester County Poetry Association in cooperation with Carol Stockmal. The purpose of the reading is to continue the efforts of Greg Stockmal to honor American poet Stanley Kunitz and his legacy in Worcester. The reading is an important part of this legacy\, recognizing Stanley Kunitz as teacher and leader of his self-described “tribe” of poets\, friends\, and family by sponsoring Worcester-area readings by poets for whom Stanley Kunitz has been an inspiration. Each year the Worcester County Poetry Association partners with a local college or university to present a poet who had a connection to poet Stanley Kunitz. Kunitz (1905-2006) was born in Worcester and went on to receive many honors\, including the Pulitzer Prize and the National Medal of Arts\, and was to become Poet Laureate of the United States (1974\, 2000). \nAbout Martha Collins \nMartha Collins’s eleventh volume of poetry\, Casualty Reports\, will be published in fall 2022; her tenth\, Because What Else Could I Do (Pittsburgh\, 2019)\, won the Poetry Society of America’s William Carlos Williams Award. Her fifth translation of cotranslated Vietnamese poetry\, Dreaming the Mountain: Poems by Tue Sy\, will appear in 2023. Collins founded the UMass Boston creative writing program and later served as Pauline Delaney Professor of Creative Writing at Oberlin College. She lives in Cambridge\, Mass. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Arts In The Garden
DESCRIPTION:Indian Lake Community Association presents Arts in The Garden featuring musician Ron Carlson\, and poet Paul Szlosek Admission is FREE and patrons are encouraged to bring non-alcoholic beverages and snacks to this family friendly event. Join us for an awesome time at Arts in The Garden! \n \nRon Carlson has been performing in Central Massachusetts and beyond for much of the last four decades\, singing traditional and contemporary folk music\, as well as many original songs. He’s been told that his original songs sound like traditional material\, something in which he takes great pride. Many of his compositions are centered in and around Worcester and the surrounding area\, where he was born\, raised and continues to live to this very day. They are songs of love\, sorrow\, pain and joy\, filtered through his eyes; sometimes whimsical\, sometimes philosophical\, hopefully with compassion and empathy. in 2004 Ron’s song When Fortune Rosins the Bow was a runner up in the WUMB songwriter’s competition. In 2011\, Ron was the winner of the Rose Garden Coffeehouses’ competition for performing songwriters. The songs performed that evening Ford Taurus and A Task Undone can be found on YouTube along with many others at Ron Carlson’s musical channel. \n  \n \nPaul Szlosek was born in Southbridge\, Massachusetts\, but currently resides in the nearby metropolis of Worcester. He was co-founder and host of the long-running Poet’s Parlor poetry reading in Southbridge and Sturbridge\, as well as a past recipient of the Jacob Knight Award for Poetry. In May 2019\, Paul started a brand new open mic and featured poetry reading series with poet Ron Whittle called The Poetorium at Starlite (also in Southbridge) which closed in March 2020 due to COVID\, but reopened recently in June 2022 (in the two year interim\, he ran an online print version entitled The Virtual Poetorium). His poetry has appeared in various local & national print & online publications including The Worcester Review\, Worcester Magazine\, Radius\, Sahara\, Concrete Wolf\, Soul-Lit\, and Diner. He’s 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.

SUMMARY:Root and Press Poetry Extravaganza
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our last Poetry Extravaganza of the Summer.\nOur Feature Poet will be the legendary Tom Ewart.\nSign up for the Open Mic at jfjr6969@gmail.com\nDoors open at 5:30pm.\nBeverages and desserts will be available.\nSupport a great venue and awesome poetry.\nSponsored by D’Errico’s Markets. \n\n\nTom Ewart is almost seventy-eight years old enough to know better\, and generally doesn’t\, which is why he writes; as E. M. Forster said\, “How will I know what I think before I see what I say?” Born and raised in Virginia\, his government took him to the Vietnam war\, which he escaped mostly alive\, but with a few side effects; he then remained here\, living in the heart of the Woo\, overlooking the weekly fireworks. He has had stories and poems published in obscure little magazines\, ones that paid mostly in contributor copies\, so he always kept a day job. Now he is retired and does what he pleases. His website\, tommywart.com\, will remind you that it’s all of him you’d ever want.
