About this Event

Bean to Bar: Poetry SeriesJoin us for a free 12-week program led by Westchester County Poet Laureate, Phylisha Villanueva, inspired by her visit to The Pod and conversations with its founder, Joy Thaler.

This unique series focuses on Ekphrastic writing, a poetic form that vividly describes and reflects on art, music, nature, food, and more—exploring themes, emotions, and meanings. By blending vivid description with interpretation, participants will create poetry inspired by the craftsmanship, social impact, and global journey of chocolate.
