THEME: SILLY OUTFITS! Last September was silly hats, but we’ve expanded to include any silly clothes. You can still bring a silly hat to wear for our gathering, or as many silly hats as you want to fit on your head. (Note: your poetry does not need to be related to silly hats.) But feel free to wear that weird vest in the back of your closet, those glitter pants, wild shoes. We’re here for it all.
*
Note: for the month of September, we will meet on the 2nd Wednesday instead of the 3rd. Spread the word!
*
Come along and read your work, and listen to some fine local wordsmiths.
*
The sign up sheet opens right at 6:45. Our reading lists have been filling up quickly, so please arrive on time to get on the list. It is first come, first serve, and when we're full, we're full.
We will have two rounds, about eighteen readers total for the night, and a few alternate slots in case there is time.
No more than 4 minutes per poet, per round.
*
If you can't make it this time, remember that our Open Hoots are every third Wednesday of the month. We will always have event pages if you need to double check that date.
