Poetry and Community

Join us for a spirited reading and discussion with journal 6x6 editor Garth Graeper and poets Michael Vizsolyi, Laura Sims and Rick Snyder. Ugly Duckling Presse (UDP) has published twenty issues of 6x6, a poetry magazine that is easily recognizable by its distinctive corner-cut and rubber band binding. Every issue contains six poets who are each given six pages to present their work; UDP encourages projects that specifically explores this format. 6x6 publishes poets of all ages from all over the United States and abroad. Brief poetry readings will be followed by an in-depth conversation focusing on poetry community building.
