Join us at "The Lit" (Ladies' Literary Club) as we warm up with an Open Mic at 5:30pm and spotlight our featured poets from 6:30pm-7:30pm, with book signing from 7:30pm-8:00pm.
Our first featured poets are David Cope and Melissa Wray, authors of the first two books published by the Grand River Poetry Collective and Press. David Cope's book is his much anticipated Collected Works, titled Moonlight Rose in Blue--come out and get a copy signed!, and Melissa Wray's debut collection sparkles with raw experience, insight, and wit.

****This is a FREE event, but we can help support this wonderful venue by enjoying the cafe, which has great food and non-alcoholic beverages. There's a cute store there, too. Buying a book also helps support the venue while it enables us to publish more Grand Rapids poets. ****
