John Gaumond, who passed away in 2024, was a familiar face in Worcester’s poetry family. His poetry readings and photography exhibits were part of its arts landscape for three decades, and in 2024, his poetry book Finding the Words (Kelsay Books) was published. His wife, writer, poet and painter Judith Ferrara (https://PaletteAndPen.com), will be reading John’s poetry and her own for this Richard Fox Poetry Series. Her poems, essays and artwork have appeared in three collections and in journals; her nonfiction books include the biography/memoir A Feast of Losses: Yetta Dine and Her Son, the Poet Stanley Kunitz. She is the 2018 recipient of the Stanley Kunitz Medal. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/worcester/the-richard-fox-poetry-series-with-judy-ferrara-reading-her-poems-and-the-poems-of-john-gaumond/200029943120100 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, open-mic, nonprofit - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 23 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Worcester - **state**: MA - **country**: United States - **location**: The Broadway Restaurant, Catering and Ice Cream - **lat**: 42.25636 - **long**: -71.79636 - **full address**: The Broadway Restaurant, Catering and Ice Cream, 100 Water St, Worcester, MA 01604-5032, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: The Richard Fox Poetry Series with Judy Ferrara reading her poems and the poems of John Gaumond - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/794053c0298ede6a9b7da7599ec665715d48c1eeaf86a0a03c4b1e6248f6a5d1-rimg-w1080-h720-dcffffff-gmir?v=1776195780 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is The Richard Fox Poetry Series with Judy Ferrara reading her poems and the poems of John Gaumond being held? - **A:** The Richard Fox Poetry Series with Judy Ferrara reading her poems and the poems of John Gaumond takes place on Tue, 05 May, 2026 at 05:00 pm to Tue, 05 May, 2026 at 07:30 pm at The Broadway Restaurant, Catering and Ice Cream, 100 Water St, Worcester, MA 01604-5032, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing The Richard Fox Poetry Series with Judy Ferrara reading her poems and the poems of John Gaumond? - **A:** The Richard Fox Poetry Series with Judy Ferrara reading her poems and the poems of John Gaumond is organized by Joe Fusco Jr. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
