Yetzirah, the first national organization for Jewish poets, is pleased to announce the line-up for its second annual Jewish Poetry Conference featuring keynote speaker Eleanor Wilner, workshop faculty Dan Bellm, Jessica Greenbaum, and Dana Levin, and manuscript faculty Alicia Ostriker.

In partnership with UNC-Asheville’s Center for Jewish Studies, July 1-7, a cohort of 36 accomplished poets from across the world will gather in the mountains of Asheville, NC, for writing workshops, discussion panels, readings, and a shared celebration of Shabbat.

July 2nd-5th, poetry lovers of all traditions are invited to join us for our public events either in-person, or remotely via Zoom. In addition to being live-streamed, these events will be uploaded to Yetzirah’s online archives. Registration for events is available on Yetzirah’s website.
