On June 23, 2023, we hosted our annual Benefit Poetry Reading, which featured poems from our 2023 Poetry Staff & Special Guests. We were proud to welcome eight beloved poets to Olympic Valley, including three winners of the Pulitzer Prize, a former U.S. Poet Laureate, a winner of the International Griffin Poetry Prize, multiple Guggenheim recipients, an Ohioana Book Award winner, a Hurston/Wright Legacy Award winner.
