Bainbridge Open Mic at BARN (BOMB!)

We’re excited to offer Open Mic for poets of all experience levels to read their work to an appreciative audience. This is a great opportunity to reach new readers and meet people who love words as much as you do. It takes courage to share your work with others. Be brave!

Open to the public, and everyone is welcome (Ages 14 and up.) No need to register in advance. Signup for the open mic will start at 6:45 pm at BARN. Poets will be asked to
keep their readings to four minutes or less.

Featured Reader: Lillo Way. Seattle poet Lillo Way’s published poetry collections include Lend Me Your Wings and Dubious Moon, which won the Slapering Hol Press
Chapbook Contest. Her poems have won the E.E. Cummings Award and a Florida Review Editors’ Prize. She has received grants from the NEA, NY State Council on the Arts, and the
Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation for her choreographic work involving poetry.

Host: Michele Bombardier, Bainbridge Island Poet Laureate. Sponsored by Arts & Humanities Bainbridge and the City of Bainbridge Island, with funding support from the Bainbridge Community Foundation. Refreshments provided by Town & Country Markets.
