Digging in the Crates: a Cave Canem group reading with Brian Francis

Join poet and educator Brian Francis (Cave Canem Fellow, 2011) as he presents poets from our New York Regional Workshop, Digging in the Crates: Creating Space for Revelry and Repair. Readers will share works that mine personal and collective histories for joy, grief, whimsy, and survival, and also examine how craft choices around language, line, form, and rhythm shape their poems.
