Make sure to try one of their amazing drinks. They offer a wide variety of health conscious mocktails you won’t find anywhere else.
We will have our POET shirts available for sale on a sliding scale! Stickers too!
PROCESS – We draw names at random, as time allows we will have a second round. We ask you limit how many poems you read to three per trips to the mic.
***Thank you for all your creative efforts, but no short stories or long form works for this event or future POETs.
No pressure, no expectations. Speak your truth at the mic, or just relax and take in the atmosphere.
Entry: To support the evening, we are selling our merchandise. POET is volunteer led and relies on community donations to cover event costs. They are not paid by the venue(s) to make it happen.
*PLEASE DONATE A FEW BUCKS IF YOU CAN RIGHT THROUGH THIS PAGE. IT GOES A LONG WAY TO HELP POET STAY FRESH AND EVOLVING. And if you can’t, thats ok. We still welcome you and would be honored to have you at the event.
This season we hope to expand our community involvement and become more aligned with our goal to be a collective. If you are interested in playing a larger role in the community or have any interest in hosting a workshop or reading, please email us: here.be.poet AT gmail.com
