Parents, friends, teachers and writers packed into Annie Bloom’s Books to see Wilson students read poetry, prose, and drama written during the previous semester with a WITS writer-in-residence. The classes hosting a writer included Creative Writing, 3D Design, and US History. WITS writer Cindy Williams Gutierrez spoke of creating art from books and writing poems about them. Some of her students read poetry they had written in Spanish. Katie Schneider, the WITS writer in the history classes, shared a piece of work and a story about her own first reading. As always, the student’s pieces encompassed a full range of emotions, with audience members alternately murmuring in dismay and laughing aloud. Thanks to everyone who contributed to this reading!
