A memorial poetry reading honoring the life and work of Danielle Legros Georges will be held at the Institute of Contemporary Art/Boston on Sunday, May 4, from 1-5 p.m. in the Barbara Lee Family Foundation Theater. The event will feature readings of her poetry by over twenty writers, poets, and publishers.

Legros Georges was an award-winning poet, author, translator, editor, scholar, and educator who served as the second Boston Poet Laureate (2015-2019). In that role, she was a strong advocate for poetry and the arts, collaborating with Boston schools, libraries, museums, artists, and students on a wide variety of public projects, readings, and civic events. A member of the influential Dark Room Collective of Black poets and artists, Legros Georges helped found the Haitian Artists Assembly of Massachusetts, served on the ICA / Boston’s Artists Advisory Council, and was a board member of the New England Poetry Club, where she helped establish grant opportunities for BIPOC poets.  Professor emerita of creative writing in the MFA program at Lesley University, she also taught for the William Joiner Institute at UMass Boston. The memorial reading is sponsored by the Mayor’s Office of the City of Boston, in partnership with the ICA and the New England Poetry Club.
