Hey Class of 2024!
I wanted to let you know about an exciting opportunity through Pittsburgh Arts & Lectures. City High students are invited to meet with Young People's Poet Laureate Naomi Shihab Nye virtually on March 11! We'll be joined by students at three other schools as well.
If you'd like to participate, we plan to read and discuss her newest book of poems, Everything Comes Next, to prepare for the live session. You'll be given a free copy of the book, and can read a sample here. Naomi's poetry often explores memory, identity (including her Palestinian American heritage), place, immigration, and nationality.
Please reply to me by Wednesday, January 27, if you'd like to join us! Let me know if you have questions.
Thank you,
Ms. Salvadeo
