Poetry Reading Unbounded: A Sustained Author Reading Event Sunday, September 20, 2026, 12:00 PM 3:00 PM CLUSTER

I'll be reading poetry at Unbounded: A Sustained Author Reading Event

Sunday, September 20, 2026, 12:00 PM  3:00 PM

CLUSTER Museum, 307 North Main StreetAnn Arbor, Michigan, 48104United States (map)

25+ Writers featuring poetry, prose and spoken word: As a tribute to all the beautiful wordsmiths in our region, join us for a day celebrating the power of language and its craft.

Unbounded: A Sustained Author Reading event honors the space where knowing one’s boundaries allow for the contemplation of unlimited sky and boundlessness, and the human capacity to understand both. As Irish poet Seamus Heaney wrote, the capacity for good writing is to “allow one to have their feet on the ground and one’s head in the air simultaneously”.

This 3-hour author reading event brings together CLUSTER’s past writers alongside new ones as well as special guests.

Final author list and schedule coming soon!

Doors open at 11:45am: Event begins at 12pm/Noon.

Schedule of writers will be posted ahead of time.

Audience members do not need to stay the whole time.

Best for ages 10+ years.
