SUMMARY:Poetry Reading and Community Open Mic feat. Huascar Medina
DESCRIPTION:An Open Mic begins at 7 p.m. followed by a reading from Kansas Poet Laurate Emeritus Huascar Medina at 7:30 p.m. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Registration is requested at bit.ly/nwc-register\n\nThis event is part of the Nebraska Writers Collective’s Visiting Writers Series.\n\n\nKansas Poet Laureate emeritus (2019-2022) and Academy of American Poets Laureate Fellow\, Huascar Medina has authored two books of poetry: Un Mango Grows in Kansas and How to Hang the Moon. He is the Lit editor for seveneightfive magazine\, a staff editor at South Broadway Press in Denver\, CO\, an op-ed writer at Kansas Reflector\, a founding member and former Chair of TopekaUnited.org\, the founder of wordssavelives.org\, and co-founder of latinidad.us. Huascar was born in Killeen\, TX\, and has lived artfully in Kansas for over two decades. He considers himself a special kind of Kansan—a helianthus. Huascar took roots in Kansas\, grew there\, and blossomed. As a second-generation immigrant living in the Heartland\, Huascar pushes the boundaries between identity and location\, focusing on cultural empathy\, social cohesion\, class structures\, first-generation trauma\, minority mental health\, and internalized diasporic longing and belonging. His work has appeared in the Flint Hills Review\, Gasconade Review\, Green Mountains Review\, Kansas Magazine\, Latino Book Review\, The New York Times\, and elsewhere.

SUMMARY:Nebraska Poetry Society Workshop: Jessica Poli
DESCRIPTION:The Nebraska Poetry Society is offering monthly Saturday morning online poetry workshops. Registration is required\, and registration information may be found on the Nebraska Poetry Society webpage. Free with annual membership; nominal fee for non-members. Students\, minors and others for whom the registration fee is prohibitive may request a free membership. \nHow do the landscapes we’ve lived in shape the way we think\, feel\, and create? In Crossing Open Ground\, Barry Lopez suggests that “the shape of the individual mind is affected by land as it is by genes.” There is a profound connection between our inner lives and the physical spaces we inhabit. In this generative workshop\, we will consider the ways the physical world influences our interior landscapes\, and how those interior landscapes\, in turn\, might shape our poems. Through guided prompts\, reflective discussion\, and close readings of place-inspired poems\, you’ll learn to translate your experiences of land — whether wide-open spaces\, urban corners\, or intimate settings — into vivid\, textured poetry. \nJESSICA POLI is the author of Red Ocher (University of Arkansas Press)\, which was a finalist for the 2023 Miller Williams Prize. Her work has appeared in Best New Poets\, North American Review\, Poet Lore\, and Salamander\, among other places. She is currently a PhD student at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln\, where she is an Associate Editor for Prairie Schooner.
