For our final week at Henry Elementary, poets took to the stage and shared their work with their fellow 7th graders! Check out these photos from our last session as these brave poets snapped and cheered for each other.
Thank you to the poets of Henry Elementary! What a joy it was to be with you all over these 15 weeks. Your creativity and curiosity is a gift to me and this world!
