The February 2024 installment of the PSA Reading Series at the Poetry Society's storefront space in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn.

The Poetry Society of America, the nation’s oldest poetry organization, was founded in 1910. Its mission is to place poetry at the crossroads of American life. The PSA transforms public spaces into sites for imaginative encounters with poems, engages diverse and often underserved communities, amplifies the voices of poets around issues of common concern, and honors their aesthetic contributions to our lives.
