March 13th saw the launch of “I Will Save You,” poems and drawings by students from all over Martha’s Vineyard.
All of the artwork and poems in the book were created by students from different schools around the island. The book was edited by Fan Ogilvie, educator and poet, and Richard Skidmore, Gay Head Lighthouse Keeper and poet. The book launched March 13, 2015 at Pathways in Chilmark with a poetry reading by the poets featured in the book.
Books will be available for purchase at island bookstores for $20 and proceeds benefit the Save the Gay Head Lighthouse project. Special thanks to Pathways Projects Institutes, Marianne Goldberg, James Weiss, Susan Stevens, Bob Moore, Amy Reece, Christine Ferrone, Todd Derry, and all the students who shared their art to help save the Light!
