# Event Details

- **Event Name**: The Shawna Foundation's Shivering Mouse Poetry Salon Presents Eve Rifkah
- **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 13 Oct, 2026 at 06:30 pm – Tue, 13 Oct, 2026 at 08:30 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: The Shawna Foundation's Shivering Mouse Poetry Salon returns for its second gathering on Tuesday, October 13, following a well-attended inaugural evening last month. The salon takes place monthly on the second Tuesday at the Uxbridge home of host and Shawna Foundation Poetry Program Director Art DuBois, combining a featured reader with an open mic for poets of every experience level.

We welcome everyone, poet or not, to experience the energy of the spoken word in a salon setting, which harks back to the days of Gertrude Stein and turn-of-the-century Paris.
�October's featured poet is Eve Rifkah of Worcester, whose long career spans factory work, freelance reporting, and decades as a teacher and editor in the New England poetry community. Rifkah holds an MFA in Writing from Vermont College of Fine Arts and co-founded Poetry Oasis, Inc., a nonprofit poetry association active from 1998 to 2012. She founded and edited the literary magazine DINER and received the Stanley Kunitz Medal in 2021. Her first book inspired the play Outcasts the Lepers of Penikese Island, and her sixth collection, exploring food as sustenance and subject, has just been released. She lives in Worcester, MA.

As with every Shivering Mouse Poetry Salon, the evening will open with Rifkah's feature reading, a Q&A with the featured poet, followed by an open mic segment for attendees who wish to share their own poems.

The Shivering Mouse Poetry Salon will take place Tuesday, October 13, with the reading starting at 6:30 PM, at 446 East St, Uxbridge, MA 01569.
