SUMMARY:NEPC  + WCPA: Gloria Monaghan\, Ivy Schweitzer\, Renee Slovick
DESCRIPTION:The New England Poetry Club is delighted to team up with the Worcester County Poetry Association for a collaboration to round out National Poetry Month! The event takes place on Sunday\, April 26\, at the Park View Room\, 230 Park Avenue in Worcester. (Please note: this is a change from the originally announced location.) The reading is free and open to the public. An open mic will follow the featured poets. Join us! \nGloria Monaghan is a Professor at Wentworth University. She has published seven collections of poetry: Diary of Saint Marion\, Lily Poetry Review\, (2025)\, Cormorant on the Strand\, Lily Poetry Review (2023)\, Hydrangea\, Kelsay Press\,(2020)\, Torero\, Nixes Mate\, (2020) False Spring\, Adelaide Books\, (2019)\, The Garden\, Flutter Press (2015)\, and Flawed\, Finishing Line Press (2011). Her poems have appeared in Mom Egg Review\, Quartet and River Heron among others. She has been nominated twice for the Pushcart Prize\, for the Griffin Prize\, and for the Shelia Margaret Motton Award. She was a Semi-Finalist for the Tenth Gate Prize. She is also a film maker. \nBorn in Brooklyn\, Ivy Schweitzer lives in Norwich\, Vermont and has taught American Literature and Women’s Studies at Dartmouth College. She writes about cultural identity and social justice from a feminist and Jewish perspective. Her poems have appeared recently in Passager\, Ritualwell\, Tikkun\, New Croton Review\, Mississippi Review\, Spoon River Poetry Review\, The New England Poetry Club’s Prize Winners’ Anthology 2024 and The Mountain Troubadour. Finishing Line Press published her debut solo collection\, Dividing Rivers\, in 2025. Visit her author page https://sites.dartmouth.edu/ivyschweitzer/. \nRenee Slovick writes poems and short stories and drinks too much Diet Coke. She was born and raised in NYC but you can only hear the accent when she gets mad. She’s not a Yankees fan\, which became really important when she moved to Worcester in 2002. She married a guy who took her to an arcade on their first date and has one human son and one cat son. These days she likes to hyper focus on horror movies and serial killers\, and fall asleep to true crime documentaries. Her favorite tarot card is The Hanged Man.
