About Our Speakers
Forrest Williams is a figurative painter who has shown his work in San Francisco, New York, Portland, Montreal, and for numerous summers at Provincetown’s AMP gallery. This summer he will be showing at Schoolhouse Gallery. He was an English major undergrad at Davidson College and received his MFA in painting at the New York Academy of Art. He now lives and works in both New York City and Provincetown. This is his sixth summer teaching at the Fine Arts Work Center.
Kimiko Hahn‘s The Ghost Forest: new and selected poems spans ten collections and subjects ranging from identity to science. In the new work, she continues to play with Eastern and Western forms. Reflecting her interest in Japanese poetics, her essay on the zuihitsu was published in the American Poetry Review. At present, she is co-editing an anthology of zuihitsu. Among her honors is the 2023 recipient of the Ruth Lilly Prize for Lifetime Achievement from The Poetry Foundation. Hahn teaches in the MFA Program for Creative Writing and Literary Translation at Queens College, City University of New York.
