Open Mic Poetry Afternoon

Come along for a cozy afternoon of poetry, self-expression and connection to celebrate National Poetry Day. Whether you’re just starting out writing, want to read your favourite poem, or you’re a well seasoned poet, bring in some poetry to read aloud! Or simply sit back and listen to some poetry live.
After the open mic, stick around for a chill mingle with tea, coffee and conversation. This free event is for teens and adults, ages 16 and up.
