Lunch Poems is a unique opportunity to celebrate poetry and is held now online on the third Wednesday of every month, from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m. This month’s reading features poets Kathryn Mockler and Michael V. Smith.
The raison d’être of Lunch Poems is to invite and welcome everyone to enjoy poetry in a relaxed and casual atmosphere: whether you are new to poetry or have had a long romance with it. We invite you to join us to lunch on words and feed your soul.
Next week! Join Dan MacIsaac and Jennifer Zilm and I on Zoom for a virtual reading on Saturday, September 11. Hosted by Fiona Tinwei Lam. I hope you can attend!
