The Carol Novack Christmas-Hannukah-Kwanzaa-Soltsice-And-Atheists-Who-Love-To-Party Tribute Party @ A Gathering of the Tribes, 12/28/2012

Ok, sometimes it's better never than late, in which case it was too late. But it isn't too late, baby, for these photos, which I took that night. It was the same day as the trip to the Seligmann Center in Goshen, NUY - or was it Chester or Sugar Bush (whatever) for the reading by Steve Dalachinsky hosted by the Northeast Poetry Center. You can check out those photos here.

Getting back into the city that afternoon, we arrived after the The Carol Novack Christmas-Hannukah-Kwanzaa-Soltsice-And-Atheists-Who-Love-To-Party Tribute Party at AGathering of the Tribes started, and I stayed for awhile, snapping away, listening to poetry and prose and music, talking to lots of folk, and in general having a fine time.

Do I know who all these people are? No. Does it matter? Well, yes, it matters to them.

Featured is the amazing Larissa Shmailo, who contacted me to come to the event and photograph. Sadly, I got there after she read, but I got some great photos of her anyway.

I will eventually add captions to these photos. In the meanwhile, enjoy, help keep Tribes alive - sign the petition (link to come) - and whatever you else you do in 2013, please stop for a minute and hear the poetry, read some poetry, think creatively.

If you have comments, you can sign in via your google account and post. I'll see them and approve any that aren't spam or actionable.
