Since 1992, the Poetry Society of America and New York’s Metropolitan Transporation Authority have joined forces to present poems in subway cars and buses in one of the most beloved public art programs in America. To celebrate the new anniversary anthology of 100 superb poems (with a foreword by Billy Collins), many of the poets featured will gather to read their own poems and favorites by others from the past 25 years, including Major Jackson, Jim Moore, Paul Muldoon, Marilyn Nelson, and Patrick Phillips.
(If you need assistance with online reservations, please visit the welcome desk at the Library for the Performing Arts' Lincoln Center Plaza entrance, where volunteers will make a reservation for you, even if you do not use email. For free events, The Library generally overbooks to ensure a full house. All registered seats are released 15 minutes before start time, so we recommend that you arrive early.)
