Nossrat Yassini Poetry Festival
Each spring, we invite poets and poetry lovers of all ages to join us for a full (free!) day of readings, workshops, multi-genre performances, a small press fair, and more. We will also be celebrating the winners of the Nossrat Yassini Poetry Prize and the Granite State Poetry Prize, with over $20k in monetary prizes and the publication of three books of poetry.

Boston Book Festival & Mass Poetry
I feel very fortunate to collaborate with these two great literary organizations to bring a full poetry track to the Boston Book Festival each fall. I’ve been involved with Mass Poetry in one way or another since I was a grad student—I can’t even imagine my literary community without them.
Please check out both for upcoming events and ways you can get involved in their programming: Boston Book Festival & Mass Poetry
