Enjoy listening to poetry and spoken word—or share some writing of your own—with Poetry in the Boro on Sunday, June 14.
In addition to hearing from poets at the open mic, we’ll get a preview of the forthcoming Dream Geographies: An Arts Collaborative which involves area poets, artists, and dreamers.
We’ll be starting at 6:45 so you can connect early and “chat” with friends. Bring your own favorite snack or beverage!
At 7:00, we’ll begin the open mic. As usual, please plan on 1 longer or 2 short poems, no more than 4 minutes. For this format, we ask that you keep your content “PG-13.” All styles of poetry are welcome. If you have questions, let us know.
Those who want to read must pre-register at https://forms.gle/j7TUqimE9GSJeghz8
