Presented as part of Wilmington Presents: DE250, this open-mic style poetry gathering celebrates Wilmington’s voices, stories, and creative spirit. Featured poets will share selections from The Delaware Poets Almanac, a semiquincentennial chapbook honoring Delaware poets and the state’s literary history.
Following the featured readings, attendees are invited to take the mic and share poems, reflections, or creative responses connected to Delaware’s people, places, history, and lived experience.
Come to listen, read, reflect, and help create a lasting literary record of Wilmington during Delaware’s 250th commemoration!
