April 3, 2025 First Thursday POETRY – Very Open Open Reading

This is a very open, open reading. In other words, we do not have a featured reader, theme, or plot for this evening.  We are open to the Fates, fortunes, and whims of the universe.

A call to all poets who have read or who have yet to read their poems aloud in the River Poets theater (Bloomsburg Public Library).

Do not be shy. Share your words [5 minute limit] – maximum 15 reading poets, (so maybe not open-ended, but open enough).

7:30 pm until 9 pm

MC: Michael DeMarco
