If you are looking for a laid back place to meet new friends, share your love of spoken word, or just listen to some great poetry, please join us!
What: Open Mic Poetry
When: 4pm - 5pm, Saturday, October 4, 2025
Where: Bobzbay Books - 419 N. Main St. Bloomington, IL
Readings of original poetry, favorite poems, short stories, spoken word, etc. are all welcome. Please keep your reading time under 10min to make sure all participants have a chance to read. (You can hop back on once everyone has shared!)
Poetry readings take place in the kid's room and the sign-up sheet will be available roughly 30 minutes ahead of time. We will have a small seating area (8 or so chairs) set up for readers and listeners, but you are also welcome to quietly mill about the shop while listening to the readings.
This monthly event series takes place on select Saturdays from 4pm - 5pm throughout the year. Participation is free and open to the public with no prior registration necessary! (*Kids are welcome to attend and/or participate but Bobzbay Books cannot guarantee that open mic readings will be suitable for all ages.)
