Celebration of National Poetry Month

Joan B. Kantor was born and raised in New York City, whose cultural richness has been a great source of inspiration. She graduated from Queens College with a Bachelor’s Degree in History and Education and then went on to live and teach in Europe for seven years, where she traveled extensively. In Shadow Sounds, her first poetry collection, Joan Kantor presents poems dealing with childhood, family (both private and public), the natural world, and the world of art. She faces personal and public demons with great honesty and relishes beauty of all kinds with uninhibited zest.  Doors open at 6:30 PM. Program runs from 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM. Free. 860-285-1918.
