Alex Erey @alexerey & Alex Kuchta @aakuchta

Special thanks to @alpinany for sharing their space with us.

@alexerey needs no introduction 💫 He’s the dopest Turkish Smørrebrød master @northforkoysters/former banker/POET you’ll ever meet. He’s been writing all through the pandemic; come hear what he’s come up with!

@aakuchta is just so nice. He’s a farmer by day @sylvestermanoreducationalfarm; folky musical singer/songwriter pretty much all the time. He knows a lot about vegetables. He’s a jersey boy. You’d love him.

Our last poetry jam was on February 15th, 2020. It was a month before everything shut down for quarantine. During lockdown, we did our #talesfromthequarantine. We asked several poets to write on the back of photographs, and those musing were sent to a small group of participants through the mail. But it was nothing like the before times. We have been vigilant and cautious, and now felt like the time to jump in once again, dig deep, and listen for a while.
