Just for the Joy of it! 0pen Mic, Poetry Thursdays, Nov 16th

Share your Verse: Two-Hour Open Mic. One Night Only!

Back again in our snug, traditional Poetry Thursdays meeting room at The Midtown Scholar Bookstore, the Almost Uptown Poetry Cartel is hosting its annual As-the-Days Dwindle-Down-to-a-Precious-Few open mic from 7 to 9 pm on November 16th.

So, if you're looking to share your verse in an informal group setting or, to just listen to some fine autumn-ripe poetry, here's how to get to our gig. Walk, with purpose, into the Scholar, turn left into the children's room, turn left again -- make it a U-turn-- & head straight back, way back, to join us for a two-hour open mic. For the love of poetry-- no necessary rhyme or reason required-- come on-- just for the taste of it!




We'd really like to hear your voice,
seriously. Another gig, another perspective.
Yeah,
that'll work. It's quite an active,
supportive group atmosphere.
Why not add to it?





No sign-up necessary. Read or chill,
everything's waiting for you.

Poetry Thursdays. Poetry Cartel hosts at
Midtown Scholar Bookstore, 1302 N. Third St. Harrisburg, PA 17102.
