About this Event

Welcome to Poet Next Door!

March's theme is: MOMENTUM


Tickets: $10-20 sliding scale.
If you cannot purchase a ticket due to financial circumstances, please reach out or use one of the free tickets. If you can afford it, please support us!

ACCESSIBILITY: The Brackendale Art Gallery is wheelchair accessible via the back parking lot (gravel). Please be prepared for loud music, and possibly sensitive topics.
