We echo a poetic line of Lawrence Ferlinghetti, who passed this year, when we come together in creativity to realize "A Rebirth of Wonder." And so it is that we celebrate another year of keepin' a good thing goin' with this beloved creative community event celebrating spoken word at its best!! Having never missed a year since Podeo's beginnings in 1989, we have much to celebrate in literary style and on Summer Solstice/Fathers' Day under continued pandemic challenges. All are welcome to this all-ages, free event!!
8-min. individual poetry and story telling spots are available every 10 min. of most hours.
TO SIGN UP for a spot, please visit WagingArt.com, click contact, and make a request for the hour you'd like to read in. Please give us a first and second choice. Co-organizer SETH will contact you and verify your spot.
