This year we have an EcoPoet in Residence - Prof. DJ Seitu who founded Writerways Institute and works with children thoughout the year in the Boston Public Schools.

Through poetic thought, Prof. Seitu, will help our children express their feelings about how our world is today and their hopes for the future.

They will decorate our festival with their eco-poetry with the goal to raise everyone's eco-consciousness. Some of our young eco-poets will come to the mic on the Family Stage and recite their poetry aloud.

Please find Prof. Seitu at the EcoKids section throughout the day on Friday and Saturday. He will run ongoing eco-poetry workshops.

Prof. Seitu will appear on the EcoStage on Friday, August 19th from 1:50-2:05 pm. He will also appear around our festival in an impromptu fashion according to available opportunities.
