We are pleased to announce the 2nd Annual Lucille Clifton Poetry Chair at the Community of Writers! Congratulations to Evie Shockley who will hold the Lucille Clifton Poetry Chair in 2025. We are delighted to be able to bestow this distinction on Evie as she prepares to join us as staff poet at this summer’s Poetry Program in Olympic Valley.
This honor is made possible by a generous donor who is committed to honoring Lucille’s memory as well as her work, values, and influence on poetry.
