WritersCorps launches “Days I Moved Through Ordinary Sound” in Washington, D.C.
“Days I Moved Through Ordinary Sounds” is a collection of work — both poetry and prose — from the talented people who have formed the ranks of WritersCorps teachers.
Come to a book discussion and hear former WritersCorps teachers read their work and describe their experiences as they taught writing in prisons, halfway houses, shelter and schools, forging relationships with people from diverse ethnicities, ages and backgrounds.
Hosted by former WritersCorps teacher Joy Jones. Featuring Kenny Carroll, Ryan Grim, Livia Kent, Uchechi Kalu, Melissa Tuckey, and Joy Jones. Greg Bargeman, actor and librarian, will give a performance. Refreshments will be served. Plus, the first 20 guests will receive a free copy of “Days” or the WritersCorps student anthology “Tell the World.”
