Poetry on Saturdays

Join fellow poetry lovers to read, write, and share poems in a supportive space. All levels of experience are welcome, from lifelong poets to brand-new writers.

Spend Saturday afternoons exploring poetry with a welcoming community of readers and writers. Whether you have lived with poetry for years or have never written a poem before, you will find space to read, write, and share your work. This gathering offers gentle encouragement, lively conversation, and time to create in good company.

This program will meet from 2–4 p.m. on the following Saturdays:

• January 31
• February 28
• March 28
• April 25
