100 Thousand Poets for Change

Posted:

In conjunction with Buffalo State’s Year of the Arts celebration, the Buffalo area poetry community will join with poets in 450 cities and 95 countries to participate in “100 Thousand Poets for Change,” a global event focusing on poetry as an instrument of social change, on Saturday, September 24, beginning at 11:30 a.m. in Rockwell Quad and continuing throughout the day. The theme of the Buffalo event is “Healing.”

Bring folding chairs or blankets and come to listen or to read your own work or another's for two or three minutes. In the evening, the event will include choral, dance, and other performances. Parking will be open and free anywhere on campus that day. In case of inclement weather, the event will move to Bulger Communication Center.
