Poetry and Spoken Word Virtual Open Mic

Enjoy listening to poetry and spoken word—or share some writing of your own—with Poetry in the Boro on Sunday, July 12.

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.
