Poetry from the Core - Clarissa Jakobsons and Steven B. Smith In-Person
Come experience poets from the brilliant breath and core of their being.
Clarissa Jakobsons: Poet, artist, instructor, book artist, was twice featured poet in Paris, France at “The Shakespeare and Co. Bookstore” and winner of the Akron Art Museum New Words Competition. She has conducted an ekphrastic poetry workshop at the Cleveland Museum of Art, sponsored by the Ohio Poetry Association. Clarissa writes, “Don’t be surprised to see my inner artist kicking sandcastles, climbing Mount Diablo, painting Provincetown dunes, or writing under an Ohio crescent moon.”
Steven B. Smith: Poet/publisher/memoirist/event creator/world traveler, is one of Cleveland’s legendary literary characters. He’s been part of virtually every underground literary scene/event in town for decades. From 1986-2006 he was the publisher of Artcrimes, featuring 517 poets and artists during its run. He has had many other publications in recent years. Currently from a home near the top of the zoo he continues to create art, poetry and life on a continual interchangeable basis.
