November and December give us every reason to celebrate—with food, friends, and gratitude for the poetry mentors who have inspired us. Join Circle of Voices on November 12th at 6:30 PM for a special evening featuring guest poetry enthusiast and renowned harpist Ann Carter-Cox.
Circle members are invited to bring one or two poems to share—whether it’s a piece you admire or one you’d like to discuss with the group. Over the months, we’ve explored formal verse, modern poetry, British poets, and Native American voices—perfect themes for the season of Thanksgiving, when all are welcome at the table. As we approach Jane Austen’s 250th birthday in December, consider bringing a poem by her or by a poet from her era—perhaps Keats, Coleridge, Wordsworth, or Blake. With so many poets we’ve encountered, we’re sure your “cèilidh companion” will spark conversation and connection. Our table is long, and all are welcome!
