Hands on Stanzas Poets-in-Residence Group Performance

Come experience the artistic work of poets who are making a difference with their art through Hands on Stanzas. Each week these poets teach more than 3,000 students how to write poetry in Chicago's public schools. On April 8 they will share their artistic talents on The Poetry Center's stage in the ballroom of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago located at 112 S. Michigan Avenue. The event gets underway at 6:30 p.m. There is a $10 suggested donation (think of the children!).
