We will take Poetry into special dimensions
for this event, with an audience participation exercise
involving the visual arts.
And perhaps with some music as well.
On the third Wednesday of each month, The Poetry Institute Poetry Series celebrates an eclectic mix of poetic voices. Free. Refreshments. (And participants are invited to bring something to share.) Open mic. Outstanding featured readers. In a casual setting. Open to all members of the public (and even others).
