The monthly Poetry @ the Artel Open Mic Reading Series is on June 4th. The June 4th reading will be the 50th in this monthly poetry reading series. This reading series is always held on the first Tuesday night of the month. This reading series' mission — to be a reading held in an inviting, warm, accepting and acoustically sound "safe" space where the diversity of work, style, word and voice are welcome, always — a comfortable space for poets/writers to read/perform, and for the audience to relax and enjoy.

For those coming to read/perform — The only assured time limit is 8 minutes. But prepare for longer if you like, because on nights with fewer readers that time limit will expand a couple minutes or so.

There will be a short intermission with light food and beverage provided.

This reading series is recorded for playback (with permission) on CFRC 101.9fm's "finding a voice." And this event also offers a two section display table — "the revolving free library" and "words for free/barter/sale."

The event is free, with all donations going directly to the Artel, and is an open event, so friends may attend as well.
