Panera Bread, Cary, NC
Having a lazy breakfast at Panera, enjoying a break before or after the errands while chatting and reading poetry is my kind of Saturday morning. When it's warm we will sit outside. I will be there from 10 AM to roughly 12:00 PM, noon. Please join me - even if you are coming later! - for a poetic breakfast!

Five Points Center for Active Adults, Raleigh, NC
A local poet or writer will be featured for approximately 20 minutes. Afterward, we invite the audience to take the mic and read their poems. While we encourage original material we don’t discourage sharing with us your favorite authors. The number of poems each participant will read will be determined by the size of the group. Please be prepared to read 1 to 3 poems, or 5 minutes of prose. Afternoon of Open Mic Poetry aims to be an intra-generational gathering of creatives working in a safe and mentoring environment. The monthly event is open to everyone, regardless of age.

This is a free event sponsored through Raleigh Rec. Registration is advised online at RecLink, https://reclink.raleighnc.gov/ or in person at any Raleigh Community Center to assure your place, but walk-ins are welcome.
