Poetry & Performance

Honored to be the headlining poet on May 2nd, 7pm for Poetry & Performance Online Meetup with Darlene Witte & the Green Mountain Writers! It's open to the public with an open mic, so please Save the Date and join us! Register at https://www.meetup.com/green-mountain-writers/events/292995210.

THIS SESSION:

Samantha Kolber’s poems have appeared in Rattle, Oddball Magazine, Mom Egg Review, Hunger Mountain, Minerva Rising, and other journals and anthologies. She received her MFA from Goddard College and completed post-grad studies at the Solstice MFA Program. Her chapbook Birth of a Daughter (Kelsay Books, 2020) won the Human Relations Indie Book Award in 2021. She lives in Montpelier, where she runs Rootstock Publishing and occasionally remembers to write poems, mostly about her daughter.

The Poetry & Performance workshop, led by Darlene L. Witte, works to bridge the gap between poetic words on a page and poetry read aloud. On the first and third Tuesdays of each month, we focus on the work of a feature poet presented live in a Zoom session. The group is invited to respond to the poetry and discuss the work. Sessions then progress to an Open Mic where anyone can share a poem of their own or one they have just taken a liking to.
