Two Vermont Poet Laureates, one family. Bianca Stone reads and reflects on the work of her grandmother, Ruth Stone.
Current Vermont Poet Laureate Bianca Stone is touring the state to take listeners deep into the work of a previous Vermont Poet Laureate. Focusing on the poems themselves and opening up a discussion about the phenomenon of poetry's place in our world, this lecture series will underscore how poems and poets are vital to our state, connecting community members to the changing landscape, architecture, wildlife, and to each other on the most intimate level.
This one-hour lecture will feature Ruth Stone, Bianca's grandmother, who served as Vermont Poet Laureate from 2007-2011.
