Events & Calendars Tell It Slant Awards Night

Join us for an inspiring evening at the Tell It Slant Awards honoring individuals whose work is imbued with the creative spirit of Emily Dickinson.

This year the museum honors poet and author Marilyn Nelson; Apple TV+ Dickinson creator Alena Smith; and, in honor of our 20th anniversary, the museum’s core founders. The evening includes recognition of the 2023 awardees, followed by a facilitated conversation with Amherst College President Michael Elliott on the power that Emily Dickinson’s revolutionary poetic voice holds for the past, present and future.

This program is FREE to attend. Registration is required.
