Bridging the Gap Public Art Project
Some excellent news to share: I have been selected as one of four writers for the next iterations of artist Janet Zweig’s Analog Scroll, part of the Westmoreland Museum of American Art’s Bridging the Gap public art project. I will create a site-specific poem to be placed on Greensburg, PA’s North Main Street Bridge from February 2022-February 2023 (barring any pandemic delays).
Greensburg is the home of my undergrad alma mater, Seton Hill, so I am excited to be creating poems about a city that nurtured me so well.
