Celebrating Annie Marhefka's BALTIMORE at the Concrete Poetry 2 Sculpture: A Poetry Reading

You might have noticed the exciting Concrete Poetry 2 Sculpture in the gardens behind the Ivy– that elegant, interactive concrete alphabet where phrases inspiring and joyful live and change.

The sculpture is the work of Baltimore artist Julia Kim Smith, and now, we bring the sculpture to life with a reading in celebration of National Poetry Month.

This very special, very Baltimore reading will feature Annie Marhefka and her new chapbook, which highlights beloved Baltimore places of all kinds through a poetic lens. Beloved poet Steven Leyva will join Annie Marhefka for this reading.

We’ll gather out in the Ivy gardens to enjoy poetry and refreshments. Books will be available for sale at the event.
