Reading Group: Readshop *ONLINE on Zoom*

This community group is held online on Zoom.

Led by poet and Woodland Pattern co-founder Karl Gartung, Readshops are community sessions dedicated to exploring poetry texts from the 20th century that are often labeled “difficult.” Participants take turns reading the poetry aloud, discussing it as questions arise—on the spot, as deeply as needed. No preparation is needed; the only prerequisite is curiosity. 

This summer the group will begin reading The Morning of the Poem (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1981), James Schuyler’s Pulitzer Prize-winning collection, which includes the long poem of the same name.

Open to the public. For more details or to join, please contact Programming Director Mike Wendt.
