Open Mic Poetry with Maren Tirabassi and Harvey Shepard
Join us for our monthly open mic poetry night!
Maren Tirabassi was Portsmouth Poet Laureate from 2001-2003. Her first project was the book Portsmouth Unabridged - New Poems for an Old City which boasted more than ninety local poets from age nine to one hundred. Her second year she ran a “Humor in Poetry”’ festival. Maren teaches poetry in a wide range of settings and travels as a facilitator for United Church of Christ (Congregational) workshops and conferences.
Harvey Shepard is a retired UNH Physics professor and is active with the Portsmouth Poet Laureate Program. His work has appeared in Poetry East, Poet Lore, The Connecticut River Review, Psychotherapy Review, Roanoke Review, the Portsmouth Herald and in numerous anthologies and online journals.
After the featured poets, we'll open the floor for you to read your work (one or two poems only please). Get here early to sign up!
