Poets' Playground: Harvest Picnic

About this event

Once every season, Triangle poets, poetry lovers, and changemakers gather at Boxyard RTP to share, listen, connect, and tag-team playful, creative solutions to the challenges our neighbors face every day. This time, we're adding music to the mix, with 5 features who are all regulars at Raleigh's [Tongue & Groove open mic](https://annaweaver.net/tongue-groove-open-mic/ "https://annaweaver.net/tongue-groove-open-mic/") PLUS spotlight performances from alumni of [Youth Rock NC](https://www.girlsrocknc.org/ "https://www.girlsrocknc.org") (formerly Girls Rock NC)! **Join us Saturday, September 5, for an evening of original poetry and music, followed by an open mic.** **Featured artists** * [Mary Mills](https://www.instagram.com/marythemills/ "https://www.instagram.com/marythemills/") (poet) * [Emily-Anne Dellinger](https://www.instagram.com/porchlightpoet/ "https://www.instagram.com/porchlightpoet/") (poet) * [The King Teen](https://www.kingteenmusic.com/ "https://www.kingteenmusic.com/") (musician) * [Kitt Ramble](https://www.instagram.com/kitt_ramble_music/ "https://www.instagram.com/kitt_ramble_music/") (musician) * [Jessica Covil-Manset](https://www.instagram.com/jcovilmanset/ "https://www.instagram.com/jcovilmanset/") (poet) **Open mic** * Poets and musicians welcome! * We have an instrument cable and one mic. * Slots are 3-4 minutes. * That's one standard-length song or one slam-length poem. * Got shorter poems?
