ALUMNAE SAMPLER READING
& Anniversary Celebration

On April 22, 2008, 35 alumnae poets from 11 states—from the class of 1950 to the class of 2007—each read one short poem, in celebration of the 10th Anniversary of the Poetry Center and the long tradition of poetry at Smith.

The reading took place in Weinstein Auditorium, followed by book-selling and signing, and a festive reception on the Wright Hall Terrace and in the Poetry Center. Thank you to all who joined in the festivities!
