11/29 FEATURED POETS:
Willow Gatewood
Willow is an environmental scientist, interdisciplinary artist, and storyteller who creates ethereal performances across the East Coast. Their poetry often weaves themes of ecology with personal narrative, and they are passionate about using intersections of art and science to reconnect audiences with their environments, one another, and themselves. Willow's first poetry books, "tangerine" (2023) and "Salt" (2024), were recently published by Bottlecap Press, LA.

Lateed Manigault
Lateef "The Oracle" Manigault, a Bronx native, is a spoken word artist whose poetry is raw and deeply vulnerable. With themes of faith, mental health, and personal struggles, he uses poetry as a bridge to reach those feeling lost and to point them toward hope in Jesus Christ. For him, poetry is a means to remind others they are never alone."
