Word literary festival celebrates seventh year
The 2022 Word literary festival kicked off on Thursday, October 20, with a poetry reading at the Cynthia Winings Gallery in Blue Hill. Attendees were encouraged to mingle and enjoy the Word-inspired art adorning the walls of the barn-turned-gallery before two of the featured poets—Beatrix Gates and William Rand—shared their work.
