[New-Poetry] from San Miguel de Allende, Mexico

[millb at aol.com]

Anny,

Thanks for the info!  

I did a graduate semester in Prague back in 1993 (not low residency), and, while it was through USC, not New Orleans, I knew that NO had a study abroad presence there as well.  

Looks like yours was a great experience-- My husband did his MFA through a low residency visual arts study at Vermont and he got an amazing amount of work done. . . plus, the instructors he studied with were top notch.

I'm off to Almeria, Spain myself in Sept.


Cheers,

Mill

Hi Mill,

 

it is a low residency program promoted by UNO, University of New Orleans. You have to take at least two summer residencies to comply with the course of studies. I was in Brunnenburg, which was the very first contact I had with them, being Brunnenburg close to here, two years ago. I then went to Madrid, Spain. And finally this year I joined them in San Miguel de Allende.

You should need further info, feel free to contact me,

Congratulations too!

Did you bring a group of MFA students to Mexico?   Was it a workshop in San Miguel?  I think I must be out of the loop since I am not sure what the event is all about. Can you fill me in?  It looks like a fabulous time. Was it a reading?

The photos are great, and I would love to see who folks are!!!  To match a few faces with their names.


Cheers,

Mill

dear New Poetry et Jforjames



 



I've made it, a 24h trip back to La Bella Italia... and with my MFA plus six extra credits. I also had time to take a heap of pics, and to meet _my greatest honor_ Lynda Schor, Halvard Johnson, Ellie and James Cervantes, all this in San Miguel! And much more, 



 



here you go:

till soon,
