Woman Made Gallery Poets Showcase at the Chicago Public Library Poetry Fest

For over twenty years, Woman Made Gallery has offered stimulating and educational programs with a focus on women artists, performers and writers who share an interest in the interaction of the arts in contemporary culture. Over the past few years, the poetry series has ventured into the community, with readings at Chicago Public Library and the Poetry Foundation’s Printer’s Ball.

Join us at the Chicago Public Library Poetry Fest for a group reading that offers a sampling of the diversity of women’s voices, topics and writing styles that can be heard at the gallery. Featured poets include Yolanda Nieves, Robin Fine, Kelly Norman Ellis and curator Nina Corwin. In addition, we will present three younger poets from area schools: Nina Li Coones, Natalie Richardson and Jennifer Linstrom.
