The Gardens of Emily Dickinson - Virtual Program
to
North Shelby Library 5521 Cahaba Valley Road, Birmingham, Alabama 35242
Join us for this virtual program brought to us by Birmingham Botanical Gardens Archivist, Jason Kirby.
Surprisingly, Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) was better known more as a gardener than a poet during her lifetime. This program will walk us through the seasons of Amherst, Massachusetts (Spring, Summer & Autumn), to highlight the flowers that inspired Emily to write her collection of almost two thousand poems. We will also take a peek at her herbarium book and conservatory. Come get inspired by a poet’s garden!
