Open Mic Poetry Night

For Adults

About the Program

Join us at the Main Library for our fifth special evening of camaraderie and poetry as well-seasoned and first-time performers alike share original pieces of writing. Designed to be a judgement-free, ‘come as you are’ zone, there are no right or wrong ways to write poetry and we can’t wait to hear what you come up with! If you are not ready to perform but enjoy poetry nonetheless and would rather be a supportive listener, that works too.

Light refreshments will be provided.
