Celebrate Earth Day with poet Bob Holman, founder of the Bowery Poetry Club and central figure in the spoken word, slam and digital poetry movements of the last several decades. His recent award winning work in language revitalization will be showcased with a screening of Khonsay: Poem of Many Tongues, which contains lines from 50 different endangered languages. Readings and discussions of original poems- as well as works of other poets inspired by nature- will highlight our connection with endangered species as we reflect on Earth Day.
Made possible through a partnership with Poets House and Battery Park City Authority.
