A very special Tiny Poets Time poetry reading for toddlers with children's poet, actor and educator Charles Waters

In celebration of Valentine’s Day, Poets House presents Albert Lamorisse’s children’s film classic The Red Balloon, followed by a make-your-own-Valentine workshop.

Poet Matthew Burgess will read from his new picture book biography Enormous Smallness: A Story of E E Cummings and lead an E E-inspired poetry activity for all ages.

Drop in throughout the day and mix together cool art materials with poetic fragments inside clear-sided diorama boxes. Watch as a literary terrarium forms before your eyes.

Drop in during the day to listen to classic spooky poetry, make a monster mask, and write a spell or incantation on “ancient” paper.

All ages welcome!

Join us for an exploration into the lost art of letter writing. Pen postcard prompts and letter lead-ins to create a mailable gift you will send to a friend at the end of the workshop.

Cast your imagination skyward with this poetry and kite-building workshop.
