Planetary Poems with O, Miami Poetry Festival

When science and literature collide, it’s poetry in motion.

That’s the premise behind “Planetary Poems,” a project created by O, Miami and Frost Science, in collaboration with Topos Graphics and The Library of Congress Poetry and Literature Center, as part of the O, Miami Poetry Festival.

In an unforgettable evening, United States Poet Laureate Tracy K. Smith will have her poetry animated inside the unique space of the Frost Planetarium. Designed by Topos Graphics, each animated poem will “constellate” against the night sky as Smith reads it.

Admission to Planetary Poems is $10 per person ($8 for Frost Science members). Tickets include beverages prior to the program (6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.). Program begins promptly at 7:30 p.m. Seating is first-come, first-served.

Please note admission to the event does not include museum admission. Museum exhibitions close at 5:30 p.m.
