So we invite you to join us in the readings on Saturday and/or Sunday.

LEASE NOTE that the Sunday readings have been scheduled so no one will have to miss the Poet Walk event at MAG from 2-5 pm. We will also have a display table and will be free to sell our books, CDs/DVDs, broadsides, postcards. We need volunteers to man the table -- preferably in 2 hour shifts -- in other words, at 4 shifts each day, hopefully with each shift staffed by 2 people. These poets can also participate in the readings; however, we obviously need folks who can staff the table during the reading periods.We also need volunteers to staff the ticket booth on Saturday for 1 hour shifts.The organizers need to know the availability of volunteers ASAP.
