Watch City Readers is a literacy program geared to tweens, teens, and families. Produced by Jessica Lucci through a grant from the Waltham Cultural Council and the Mass Cultural Council, its goal is to introduce the vibrancy of various literary genres in an exciting and inclusive way.
The Watch City Readers production is held on the second Sunday of the month at 6PM on Jessica Lucci's FB page. After the live event, it is archived for future viewers or those who choose to watch again.
Happy National Poetry Month! This episode also marks one year of Watch City Readers programming!
This year to celebrate National Poetry Month, we investigated different styles and tones in poetry. I carefully curated selections from local and diverse authors.
The selected poets I have chose to read from include Peter Payack, Franz Wright, Dan Szcxesny, Melody Lee, and Sarah Cannavo. I also gave away free copies of my new poetry collection, "How Can I Steal a Purse."
