Poet Laureate of Miami-Dade County, FL

Year Title
2025 Poet Laureate of Miami-Dade County, FL

 

In partnership with O, Miami, Caridad Moro-Gronlier will launch “Generation 305: An Intergenerational Poetry Project,” which will involve free, multigenerational poetry workshops to preserve the stories of seniors, build community connections, and foster communication across generations. These workshops will be open to K–12 students, their parents, young adults, seniors, and the public. The project will also include a K–12 educational component: in-school workshops taught by community poets to develop civic-minded poetry that promotes intergenerational storytelling and challenges generational stereotypes, creating a new poetic canon that fosters social well-being in the process. The poems created in the workshops will be turned into permanent public art, and Moro-Gronlier will document the project through photographs, videos, recordings, mini-films, and project-specific, original poetry, which she will use to create a digital archive.
