We believe an important part of supporting Jewish poets and Jewish poetry is helping people make connections in their own communities, helping facilitate local networks that encourage and inspire. After all, online friends can’t drop off soup and a good book when you have the flu.

So whether you’d like to hold an event at your synagogue or your home, at a local bookstore or library, with your book club or writing group, or as part of your reading series, we’ve created some materials to assist you in hosting a successful gathering. 

Once you’ve got everything planned, send your event’s details to our intern Shelby Sizemore at [email protected], and we’ll add it to our community calendar. In your message, please include:

• • Name, date, and time of the event you’ll be hosting
  • Address of the event’s venue
  • Names of participating readers, hosts, etc.
  • A link to your event (if you have one)

*As the programs we create and events we promote are an important part of our fundraising efforts, we’ve included a QR code on these documents linked to our donation page. We’d very much appreciate if you might encourage your community to help support Yetzirah’s literary efforts through their contributions.
