New Voices: Philadelphia’s Emerging Poets
Matilda Bray (14) “Matilda’s ability to focus on one or two unifying images and mine them metaphorically is extraordinary. Matilda is a brave and gifted poet.” – Joanne Leva, executive director of the Montgomery County Poet Laureate Program.
Elisha Gibson is a Poet, illustrator, and musician and a Lancaster resident with a passion to revel in the abstract and poetic aspects of life. Out of that, he has published a collection of poems and illustrations titled Prospectives.
Bella Randazzo is a freshman at Drexel University studying Environmental Engineering, currently living in rural South Jersey. From a young age and now at 18, her passion for reaching the hearts and minds of others extends across mediums such as STEM, culinary arts, illustration, music, mental health awareness, and, most evidently, poetry and prose. With empathy and self-truth as fuel, she allows slam poetry and spoken word to be poetic vessels through which she can connect with the world in a personal yet profound way.
Host: Krisann Janowitz
