The Poetry Moment at the New Deal Café, in honor of National Poetry Month, was a multi-language, multi-media event that filled the cafe’s back room. Held on April 3, this was the café’s first English/ Spanish poetry read held in honor of Juan Felipe Herrera, the current U.S. Poet Laureate. Mayor Emmett Jordan opened playing guitar, followed by readings in both English and Spanish with Jan Knutson providing a Latin guitar ending to the afternoon. Friends of the New Deal Café Arts and the Greenbelt Latino Arts Committee sponsored the event.
