“come celebrate with me:” The Work of Lucille Clifton

On view November 19, 2013 through March 22, 2014

“come celebrate with me:” The Work of Lucille Clifton features poems, drafts and manuscripts, letters, previously unseen photographs, and other materials — from the first poem she ever wrote in the 1950s to her last in 2010 — from Clifton’s archives. Curated by the poet Kevin Young, the materials have been generously loaned to Poets House by the Raymond Danowski Poetry Library at the Manuscripts, Archives, and Rare Book Library at Emory University.
