This isn’t your average open mic—it’s a space built for poets who get it. The ones who scribble lines in the margins of receipts, who think in metaphors during traffic lights, who chase rhythm and meaning like old friends they’re always trying to find again.This night is for the writers who know what it feels like to put your heart on the page and hope someone else sees it, feels it, understands it. It’s a chance to share your words with people who appreciate the craft—the cadence, the courage, and the quiet vulnerability that comes with poetry.
Whether you’re ready to step up to the mic or simply want to listen, snap, and cheer for others, you’ll be surrounded by kindred spirits who speak the same creative language. It’s not about perfection—it’s about presence. About showing up, sharing your truth, and finding connection through the rhythm of words.
Bring your notebook, your heart, and your favorite verses to share (or just your listening ears). Settle in among fellow poets who understand that sometimes a few lines can carry an entire lifetime—and that every poem, no matter how small, deserves to be heard.
