Poolside Poets at Saint Joseph's Art Society

Description

On an evening in late April Saint Joseph's Art Society hosted another luminous edition of Poolside Poets, presented by Decentered Arts alongside curators Rhea Joseph and Liz Cahill. In this breathtaking historic venue - founded by Ken Fulk - poetry, music, dance, and fashion gathered once again for an evening celebrating Earth Day through performance and community.

Guests arrived dressed in their best “Elemental.”

Think: flowing water-blue gowns, airy sheer capes catching invisible winds, flame-toned silks and glowing reds, mossy greens and earth textures, nature prints, ocean shimmer, volcanic glamour, forest mysticism - mix & match: linen, chiffon, cotton, velvet, recycled fabrics, thrifted treasures, upcycled pieces honoring the beauty of the planet.

Featured Poets: Jesse Nathan, C. Anne Gardner, and more poets joined the lineup.

Featured Musician: Hidden Thread Music

Dancers: Erica Knox and Tobias Echeverria

Throughout the evening, more artists appeared as the soaring halls of Saint Joseph’s Arts Society filled with poetry, music, movement, and celebration in honor of the elements and the living world around us.
