Overview
Though it takes its title from a popular 19th century New York music hall show, Muldoon’s Picnic is a 21st century take on the tried and true formula of bringing together world class poets, prose fiction writers, and musicians. Now in its ninth year at Irish Arts Center, the Picnic is curated by the Pulitzer Prize-winning poet and songwriter Paul Muldoon, and features a hard rocking house band, Rogue Oliphant.
