National Poetry Month at Brookfield Place

April 10, 2015 by Kayla Hernandez

National Poetry Month at Brookfield Place
 
National Poetry Month at Brookfield Place. Brooklyn’s Poet Laureate Tina Chang, nationally acclaimed spoken-word artist Mahogany Browne, and students from Third Street Music School will fill the Winter Garden at Brookfield Place with words and music as part of “Spring Poems & Songs:  A Musical Celebration of Poetry Month,” a free event presented by Arts Brookfield during the month of April.
 
On Sunday, April 19th, Tina Chang will host an afternoon of live performances and interactive activities in the spectacular glass-vaulted atrium at Brookfield Place, which offers idyllic springtime views of the Hudson River. Both Browne and Chang, who in 2010 became Brooklyn’s first-ever female Poet Laureate, will perform their own work. In addition, local area public school students will read aloud their poetry, drawn on inspiration from New York City.
 
Before and after the performances, Poets House, the national poetry library and literary center, will host interactive poetry-making activities for kids and adults, inviting poets of all levels and all ages to tap into their inner bard.
 
Date: Sunday, April 19th

Life is funny. A year ago I was celebrating 20 yea Life is funny. A year ago I was celebrating 20 years of calling NYC home. A year later, our family is on a crazy career adventure in Miami, with a lot of unknowns. 

But, we do know that we only get one life to live and jumping in feet first is the only way to live life to the fullest, at least in our minds 😂. 

We are already in love with the Miami weather, the happy people, the gorgeous beaches 🏝 and the day tripping way of life. We arrived in FL w a suitcase each and a mask 😷. Happy that we are surrounded by mask-wearers. Wasn’t sure what to expect. But, we will be back in NYC this summer. Lots of decisions to make between now and then. But also lots of fun and exploring over the next few months. 

The silver lining of the Covid world we live in is remote learning allows us to travel and say yes to new beginnings. Stay tuned for updates on the next chapter for our website, too.
