What’s Poetry Pick-Me-Up?
PPMU is a casual poetry-sharing and discussion group that happens every non-holiday Thursday, 12-1PM Central. FREE! Join us for our next gathering on April 25th. Just hop on the Zoom at this link.
Bring a published poem (or excerpt) that you’ve recently read to share with the group. Or, just come to listen and to participate in informal but wholehearted conversation.
Please, no original poetry, as we have other opportunities on The Raft for you to present that.
Can’t make it on Thursdays? Catch the replay in one of these Raft newsletters: Events & News, or Rafter Digest. Manage your subscription preferences here.
Want to watch previous Pick-Me-Ups? Find them in the Catch Up! archive of event replays.
