Barbara G. S. Hagerty and I had a wonderful time putting together the Piccolo Spoleto Sundown Poetry Series programming for the first time this year. We knew we were in for a big job, following in the footsteps of Carol Furtwangler, Coordinator for the Series for the past fifteen years. Carol was a tremendous help in getting us oriented and ready to go as the new Coordinators. The Series consists of ten evenings, Monday through Friday during the Picolo Spoleto Festival, of poetry readings by poets from the Charleston area and beyond. This year's Series featured the following talented poets:
Mon., May 27 William P. Baldwin
Tue., May 28 Lola Haskins
Wed., May 29 Edward Gold
Thur., May 30 Barbara G. S. Hagerty
Fri., May 31 Glenis Redmond
Mon., Jun. 3 Emily Rosko
Tue., Jun. 4 Randy Spencer
Wed., Jun. 5 Alice Osborn
Thur., Jun. 6 Henk Brandt
Fri., Jun. 7 Sandra Beasley
Much gratitude to all the fine poets who read, plus to the wonderful audiences who made it all worthwhile. We're already looking forward to the 2014 Series. Applications will be posted online this fall at the Piccolo Spoleto website .
