New Videos with BOA poets Keetje Kuipers, Aracelis Girmay, and Michael Waters

  • BOA News

On September 18, 2011 BOA held our annual Dine & Rhyme celebration at the Memorial Art Gallery in Rochester, NY. Those who were fortunate enough to attend were treated to an astonishing, wide-ranging poetry reading by BOA poets Keetje Kuipers, Aracelis Girmay, and Michael Waters. We’re pleased to announce that those readings in the entirety are now posted on BOA’s YouTube page:

2011 Dine & Rhyme videos 

Whether your re-living that magical night or seeing it for the first time, these are share-worthy videos of three diverse and dynamic poets.

Enjoy!
