Join editor Susan Barba for an outdoor poetry reading of her new literary anthology, filled with classic and contemporary poems and essays inspired by wildflowers. Instead of sitting in a lecture hall, you will meander through the wildflowers of the Arboretum and hear beautiful poems and prose while surrounded by the wildflowers that inspired them. The group will stop at different wildflowers highlighted in the book and listen as Barba reads passages about sunflower, chicory, or goldenrod.
Participants who attended June's American Wildflowers program are welcome to attend again: there will be new flowers and new poems to enjoy!
This program may involve climbing some moderate hills and navigating woodchip, gravel, and paved paths.
In the event of inclement weather, registrants will be notified. For more information, please call (617) 384-5209.
