What we're about
We're an eclectic mix of poets who like to share poetry in an open, non-threatening venue. We share inspiration with each other and other artists. We have had ekphrastic poetry/painters in the DC Metro area, and we enjoy music/poetry inspirations.

POETS ANONYMOUS
Come share your poetry at the Northern Virginia’s longest running Open Reading venue.
PA’s OPEN POETRY READING:
RSVP required for admission (make sure Meetup and Zoom names are the same). We start CAMERAS ON for introductions.
We read 'round-robin', one poem at a time, in the order as set by the Hosts (late arrivals will be added at the end of round in progress). We will read as many rounds as we want until 4:45PM, so bring plenty to read (yours or other poets you want to honor). Hardcopies and screen sharing are not required.
Please note: Poets Anonymous is an open poetry reading group. We are not a critique/workshop or discussion group.
