  Out Loud Poetry Reading

Men Poets seeking Women Poets--we have a great regular group of guys at Out Loud, but they want the woman's perspective.  Come and join us gals! 

During Out Loud evenings, attendees have the opportunity to share their poetry or prose.  Sometimes we will have guest readers.  Participants in Out Loud  are eligible to submit poetry for publication in the Center's Anthology of Poetry.  Out Loud meets on the final Thursday of each month at 7 p.m.  Listeners are also welcome.

We are selecting a poem of the month beginning in May.  This poem is published on our website.  Next May we will select a poem of the year from all of the monthly selections and honor an Out Loud poem of the year at our annual meeting.
