The opening program of the 2021 Sunken Garden Poetry Festival features a musical performance, prelude poetry reading, and presenting poet Jenny Xie.

The Festival will take place on Hill-Stead’s expansive and picturesque West Lawn, allowing attendees to be safely socially distanced. Seating will be limited, but a livestream ticket option is also available for those who may prefer to tune in from the comfort of home.
