Strange Symmetry: A Call & Response Reading Co-hosted by DIALOGIST & Tyger Quarterly Reading
DIALOGIST and Tyger Quarterly are excited to propose a collaborative reading that features poets from our pages. In the spirit of dialogue and a little flirtation with symmetry, the poets will be paired to identify pieces that mirror, contrast, or depart from one another by theme or form. From “Mother” to “April,” sonnet to prose-poem, abecedarian to palindrome, the editors and readers will collaborate over the winter months to craft a reading that speaks from and back to the opening breath and the concluding silence. DIALOGIST and Tyger Quarterly are both web-based journals that feature contemporary poetry. Formerly a biannual print journal, DIALOGIST was founded in 2013 and now publishes work on a weekly basis. Tyger Quarterly debuted in 2022, with the gentlest emphasis on work that extends the curious energies stirred some time ago in the questions of William Blake. S. Yarberry and Timothy Leo will introduce the readers who are included below.
I’m grateful to have received a joint NEA/NYS Arts Connect Grant for an image/text work-in-progress which I look forwar to working on!
The Arts Center of the Capital Region is thrilled to announce that through the Art Connects Artist Grant Program, we have awarded a total of $70,000 to 17 talented artists across Albany, Columbia, Greene, Montgomery, Rensselaer, Saratoga, and Schenectady Counties.
Funded by the National Endowment for the Arts and the State of New York, the Art Connects program reflects our commitment to supporting artists at every stage of their creative journey. Whether emerging or experienced, these artists share a passion for exploring new ideas and pushing the boundaries of their art forms.
This year’s funded projects highlight the region’s diverse creative talent, with work spanning digital illustration, sculpture, painting, performance art, writing, and more. By supporting artists in underserved and rural communities, Art Connects ensures that everyone, regardless of background or resources, has the opportunity to pursue their creative vision.
