Open Mic Poetry

Emotional or humorous, storytelling or intense, poetry can evoke a variety of thoughts and emotions. Explore or recite literary works during a time of alliteration, rhythm and verse. All are welcome to read your work aloud or read work from your favorite poet(s). You will also get the opportunity to connect with the growing community of "Monmouth County Poets". Themes and prompts are suggested and extemporaneous poems are encouraged. Poems must be appropriate for a family-oriented audience. Preregistration is recommended for readers, though drop-ins are welcome as time permits. Contact Rachel Cohen to be added to the list of readers at (732) 542-1642, ext. 4648 or rachel.cohen@monmouthcountyparks.com. FREE!
