"You’re living. Don’t stay hungry.
Now is not the season for being hungry.
Now is the season for being ripe, for blooming,
for outstretching your rambler vines.
Now is the season for accomplishing,
for being full to the brim with yes.
Now is the season of yes and I am awake and
I refuse to be small..."

Caroline Harvey shares her sound as a poet, a storyteller, a master of ceremony and a voice for change.  Known for her powerful physical presence, unflinching honesty and skillful use of language, her work is both brutal and moving—exploring spirituality, womanhood, freedom and the belief that even the fiercest traumas and illnesses contain within them the potential for profound healing.  Bostonia Magazine calls her "loud and fierce" and Hampshire College Slam Master writes, "There are few living poets who put the kind of passion into their performance that Caroline does." 

Caroline is available for events, ceremonies and shows internationally.  She is also a passionate teacher of poetry, poetry performance & vocal technique and she works enthusiastically with large or small groups.  She has experience and special interest in working with at-risk youth, and also loves being a part of weddings or other special Rites of Passage events.  For requests about her availability, send an email here.
