Reception & Open Mic features Inaugural Poet Laureate: Susan Powers
Join us as we welcome Scotland's Poet Laureate, Susan Powers. Susan swims in the waters of the Connecticut poetry culture. Her work has appeared in Sixfold Magazine, The Orenaug Mountain Journal, and the 2024 edition of Winter Glimmerings. She will share her poetry and open the floor for others to step up to the open mic. Please bring your own original poems to read or simply read any poem that you love.
Light refreshments will be available.
