ABOUT US:
The Toronto Poetry Club meets informally once a month in downtown Toronto.
In the first half of the meeting, each poet shares 1 poem with the membership by reading it aloud. (Optional: post your poem to be commented on and edited in our "Discussions" forums for free before you RSVP).
The second half of the meeting is the social, where we go to a local bar/cafe and socialize.
***
An annual magazine of our best, selected poems is in the works. We comb our forums with a fine-tooth comb for the best poems! But we need volunteers! As such, volunteers are always welcome! Editors in particular! Magazine work to be done, too! Sponsors are always welcome, too! After you join, use the "Discussions" forums or email the President of the club for more information.
For more info, social networking us! :)
