Illuminations

Bank Street Arts will be closed over Christmas from 18th December, reopening 10th January. Today is the last day this year, and the last Christmas Craft Fair, so don't miss it for some original ideas for stocking fillers.

The Poetry Cafe will be back in the new year, and the first workshop will be Wednesday 11th January. We'll meet as usual to get started at 12pm. Bring copies of your poem to workshop.

The book group is reading Ashbery's translation of Illuminations by Rimbaud. Here's a link to The New York Times, where Lydia Davis writes about Rimbaud's life and writing, and Ashbery's approach to translating his work.

Have a merry Christmas!

See you next year.
