ONLINE: It's in Our Nature
Will Zarwell
Poet, painter and educator Robin Chapman is a Wisconsin Academy of Sciences, Arts and Letters Fellow.
Nothing prompts poetry like nature; the two have been walking hand-in-hand since well before Wordsworth. The Friends of the Lakeshore Nature Preserve is launching its second annual “It’s In Our Nature” poetry slam. Madison poet Robin Chapman will emcee over Zoom. If you are interested in attending or reading your work in a 3-5 minute spot, register here.
