Funded by a generous grant from the Jerome Foundation, this program assists emerging poets by providing excellent poetry writing instruction and mentoring in the special environment of Poets House’s library—with its unique archives and access to far-reaching programs and conversations with poets and poetry audiences. The program aims to deepen participants’ artistic practice by offering a robust professional network of poets and literary professionals, including special visits from editors and publishers, who will assist each writer with their artistic development and career.
The 2013 Emerging Poets Fellowship workshop is taught by poet and teacher Jen Bervin. Distinguished Visiting Faculty include CAConrad, Cornelius Eady, Ben Lerner, Evie Shockley and Jean Valentine.
