Give Voice: Poetry in Response to “The Salem Witch Trials 1692”
The Salem Witch Trials remain a source of fascination and horror, as well as a reminder of the dangers of intolerance, fear, and mob mentality. The Salem Athenaeum, partnering with the Peabody Essex Museum in conjunction with its current exhibition, The Salem Witch Trials 1692, presents an evening of poetry responding to this resonant and dark era in our colonial history. Join us on Saturday, March 20, at 7:00 pm, to hear award-winning poets Mandy Gutmann-Gonzalez, James R. Scrimgeour, and Cindy Veach read from their work that gives voice to the victims of this time. Dan Lipcan, the Ann C. Pingree Director of the Phillips Library at PEM, will provide a brief overview of the exhibition.
