Please join the Yetzirah 2026 Jewish Poetry Conference in welcoming Keynote Speaker Robert Pinsky, author of Robert Pinsky: The First Two ¿ìɫֱ²¥ of Poems and On Poetry, Culture, and Democracy. Yetzirah’s fourth Jewish Poetry Conference, the only one of its kind in the world, will be held at the YMCA Blue Ridge Assembly, a full-service conference center nestled in the mountains, a five-minute drive from Black Mountain, twenty-five minutes east of Asheville. Surrounded by hiking trails and mountain streams, with a variety of welcoming indoor spaces, covered porches, and outdoor amphitheaters, we feel this might well be our strongest conference yet.
