National Endowment for the Arts Poetry

Posted on September 23, 2008 in Culture

Monday we stepped away from the cocktails (although there was a wonderful America’s Promise event at Union Station) and focused on culture at the National Endowment for the Arts Rise Up and Hear: An Evening of Poetry Honoring Abraham Lincoln’s Legacy.

In addition to several other other readers and important speakers, special guests Joan Allen and Sam Waterston gave readings of some of Lincoln’s best speeches and favorite literary works.

Congratulations to Ellen Grantham on a successfully planned evening and a night of poetic celebration.
