Poetry at the Backyard / New Poetry Reading Series Call for Submissions: Deadline May 18th

 

I want to share with you some information about a new public poetry night in North Lake Tahoe sponsored by the Tahoe Poetry Collective.

The summer series begins on June 15th at the Tahoe Backyard located in Kings Beach a 8428 Trout Ave. (behind Bank of the West). 

This will be a submission-based series with a curated selection process and not an open mic affair. To create an artistic event, a team of curators will select from the submissions. They encourage original work but accept readings of other authors or published writings.
