Visible Voice Books will host an Open Mic Poetry Reading at 8:00 p.m. A BYOB and BYOP (bring your own poetry) evening, writers of all interests, skill levels and styles are invited to bring some beer or wine and share their work on our new outdoor patio (or upstairs meeting room in case of inclement weather.) Anyone who digs supporting local artists, from poetry aficionados to poetry neophytes and everyone in between, is welcome to come and enjoy a night of spoken word, surrounded by the written word. In the grand tradition of Ginsberg reading “Howl” at the Six Gallery while Kerouac poured the wine, we are combining two of our favorite things—creative writing and (responsible) adult beverage consumption for a one-of-a-kind event.
