Reflections
We work closely with coordinators, performers, and poets in order to create every Poetry Express event. There are a lot of moving parts in this program—and it is important to us that the process of working with us and with your community go well! Your reflection on the whole process helps us understand what’s most useful and supportive and what works less well, so that we can keep this program vital.
