Celebrate National Poetry Month with featured touring poets Tony Ehrlich and David B. Axelrod, followed by a short community open mic.
Volusia County scene will be in the spotlight in April featuring two traveling poets who will share at 3 PM, followed by a brief book signing opportunity, and then a community open mic featuring the first five who sign up.
If you would like to share a poem, please see the facilitator at 2:30 PM to get your name on the list on the day of the event. There is space on the list for five poets at five minutes each. At 4:00 PM, the readers will be called to the podium in the order their names appear on the sign-up sheet.
Share your polished poems or bust out fresh ink from your notebook during St. Augustine’s longest-running open mic poetry event. Invite a friend or two or three. Ancient City Poets has always been open to the public and there is no charge at the door to get your name on the list.
The April gathering will be the second in an eight-part series of monthly events celebrating creative writing and reciting presented by Ancient City Poets, and the St. Augustine PoetFest. This series is coordinated by Chris Bodor, in recognition of his role as the Beat Poet Laureate for the State of Florida.
