Please join California Poets in the Schools for a community open mic at 7pm, Sunday, April 23rd, in celebration of National Poetry Month.
The event is part of a quarterly series of open mic events meant to foster community amongst our network, and to highlight our fantastic poets. Each event will spotlight one or two poets from the CalPoets' network as featured readers, and an emcee (also from the network). On the 23rd, our featured readers will launch the event with a 15 minute reading (each) and then we'll then transition into an open mic.
