QUICK LOOK:
Join us for an enchanting evening of poetry as we celebrate the power of words and the beauty of voices. The Multicultural Women's Poetry Group is excited to host this event, where we join to share extraordinary creations from our favorite poets and our own poetic creations. From thought-provoking pieces or heart-warming verses, this evening promises to be a captivating journey into the world of poetry.
Whether you identify as a poet, an aspiring writer, love the poetry you read, or simply love the spoken word, our 2nd Friday Poetry Night offers an open and inclusive space for all to express themselves. We encourage attendees to participate by reading from their own poetry or reciting works by their favorite poets. This is an incredible opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals, immerse yourself in the world of poetry, and support the immense talent within our community.
Join us as we uplift and empower one another through the universal language of poetry.
IT'S IN THE DETAILS
What to bring:
BRING any poetry you would like to share aloud. This month, we have a suggested theme, which is just an invitation and not a requirement; any poetry may be shared. You are free to bring your own non-alcoholic beverage or snack. The group voted not to provide these items, but each could bring their own.
Inspiration:
We will post poetry writing prompts for the month that may inspire your first poem or your billionth poem. Poetry that is funny, based on true stories, word play, emotional, dim or bright, rhyming or not, long or short…. Give it a go.
Our Theme this month:
INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY 2026
What we will do:
Each person who wishes can share their selection and any thoughts about their pieces, such as why they like them or what inspired them. Then, we will open it up for supportive discussion from the “I” & “and” perspectives. Each person can share, and we would like to respect the time in order to give everyone who wishes a chance to speak.
What to share in the discussion:
Anything you feel comfortable sharing. These could be the feelings, meanings, or questions that arise for you. It could be the reason why you resonate with a piece, including a personal experience or memory. Also, you may have insights into the writing, such as the historical context of its composition, the author, or other interesting details. The goal is to have an engaging, supportive discussion. This is not a critique environment. All discussions are intended to explore how the art shared during the event makes us feel and to provide support and encouragement to all of our authors who wish to breathe life into the words they have shared as a gift to our ears.
