Bring Your Own Poetry - Open Mic

About this event

In partnership with **Paradigm Poetry**, please join us for **Bring Your Own Poetry**, an open mic. We gather every two months on the **second Thursday**, from **6–9pm**, at **Natural Science Bar** in Raleigh. The poetry community in the Triangle is thriving—full of heart, courage, and talent. Speaking our art—especially when it feels scary—can be healing. To share your work and feel it received with loving attention is both powerful and transformative. Bring your poetry, and we will bring our love. This is a space to listen deeply, support one another, and share our art. Our voices are sacred. We need one another’s stories, wisdom, and the music of words spoken by the poets who wrote them. Please see the event details, below.
