With support from the Witter Bynner Foundation for Poetry, the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum is pleased to present a four-part reading series that will bring poetry and dialogue into a welcoming, accessible space.

The Arts Alive: Poetry at the Museum series will consist of four events, each of which will feature two women poets who live and work in New Mexico. At each event, the poets will read selected pieces and will talk with one another about their process, their work, and their experience. We invite anyone who has a curiosity about poetry to join us for any or all of these free events. As a special memento, audience members will receive a special letterpress print of poetry written by the event’s headliners (while supplies last). These have been created in collaboration with the poets and Etc. Letterpress.
