St. Elmo's Delray Poetry Open Mic Night

Dear Poets and Poetry Lovers,

Come join us for a night of creativity and expression at St. Elmo's Delray Poetry Open Mic Night! The featured poet will be Arlington Poet Laureate Courtney LeBlanc. You won’t want to miss her powerful and provocative work. Courtney’s performance will be followed by an open mic where all are invited to share their own poems or a favorite that is near and dear to the heart... the February theme is LOVE (naturally).

The event is free and open to the public.
