Carousel by Kimberly Campanello
Kimberly Campanello@kimberly.campanello It’s been a restful few days at home after Poetry’s Environments! Thank you to Leeds colleagues who chaired panels, gave their thoughtful input into the design and content of the conference, and/or shared the call among their networks - Fiona Becket, Emma Cayley, Fiona Douglas, Maia Elsner, David Higgins, Matt Howard, Hazel Hutchison, Zaffar Kunial, Sarah Prescott, Caitlin Stobie, Matthew Treherne, and Emma Trott. A MASSIVE thank you to those who supported the conference logistics before and during – Lu Valozic Nenadic, Luis Harrison and Matt Howard, along with the student ambassador team, the teams that run the three venues, and those who documented the evening events. Thank you to the poets who headlined our evening events - the Caster Cultural Fellows (Anthony Capildeo, Helen Mort, Malika Booker, Zaffar Kunial, Matt Howard, and the incoming fellow Kris Johnson) and Simon Armitage. And thank you to our partners who made the conference extra special: the National Poetry Centre, the Poetry Book Society, Leeds Literature Festival, Modern Poetry in Translation, Banshee Press, Guillemot Press, Hazel Press, and Galleries and Cultural Collections at the University of Leeds.
