The group of poets, No River Twice, develops an interactive community performance in response to the screening of "Going to Mars: the Nikki Giovanni Project."
No River Twice is "a group of poets who offer poetry readings in which audiences and poets actively interact, poem by poem, to decide the direction of the performance from beginning to end, co-creating a reading that is never the same twice. We don't improvise poems, just everything else. Selections, themes, and tone are a surprise and discovery to all of us. And we make a poem of it!"
About the Event:
"Reel Inquiry: A Weekend of Arts & Humanities on Screen" connects a series of films, both documentaries and features, exploring painting, poetry, music and the art of the spoken word through film. This series is offered in observance of National Arts & Humanities Month, "a collective recognition of the importance of culture," according to Americans for the Arts.
