Kent Bowker reads the work of Linda Crane at the GWC during Olson100.

The Gloucester Writers Center will host quarterly Poetry Salons, allowing local audiences to engage with the work of established and emerging poets. Each event will feature two poets who will be invited to address the salon’s theme of “Poetry & Place” in their readings, with the goal of creating site-specific “happenings” that engage Gloucester’s literary, cultural and maritime history. Local and visiting poets working in a wide range of literary traditions will attract diverse youth and adult audiences from Cape Ann and beyond.

    THESE DAYS

    whatever you have to say, leave
    the roots on, let them
    dangle

    And the dirt

    Just to make clear
    where they come from


  • "my visit to the
    Gloucester Writers Center was very inspirational...
    There's something about that set of rooms, the Center,
    that seems to shout "Yes!" to poetry, writing, rumination,
    study and planning."

    The Gloucester Writers Center is a place for working writers in a town that knows about work.
