About this Event

Please join us for the first part day of "New Directions in Literary Publishing." This event will include a poetry reading from some of the most exciting new voices in contemporary American poetry, and will be followed by an editorial roundtable the next day, April 30.

The inaugural cohort of Advisory Poetry Editors for the “New Directions in Contemporary Literary Publishing” Arts Lab project at the Neubauer Collegium—Kai Ihns, Imani Elizabeth Jackson, Aditi Machado, and Margaret Ross—will read from their new books of poetry, followed by a Q&A and book-signing reception.

*Cosponsored by the Department of English
