'Welcome Poets' Community Screening with PBS Wisconsin

Welcome Poets Community Screening Premiere with PBS Wisconsin

Join us at the Hoard Historical Museum for special community screenings of Welcome Poets! This film follows former Wisconsin Poet Laureate Nicholas Gulig in a reflective homecoming, interwoven with the life and work of Fort Atkinson’s own Lorine Niedecker (1903–1970). Through landscapes, memory, and poetry, Welcome Poets explores identity, place, and the power of poetry to give voice to community.

After each screening, stay for a brief Q&A and connect with fellow poetry lovers and neighbors. We look forward to seeing you there!

The first screening will start promptly at 5 p.m. followed by a second screening at 7 p.m.
