Philadelphia Poetry Festival

Free Library of Phila., Central Branch
Montgomery Auditorium

The Fest is going down from 12p-4p in the Montgomery Auditorium (that’s downstairs) and will include representatives from an eclectic mix of Philly poetry orgs, talking about their work and spotlighting one of their favorite poets. The Mad Poets Society is one of those organizations. (In fact, Eileen & I have been part of the organizing committee, along with Joanne Leva, Tamara Oakman & Leonard Gontarek). Eileen will do the talking for MPS & John Timpane will be our representative poet. We’ll hit the stage in the 3rd set, early in the 2 o’clock hour. Right after featured poet Nathalie Anderson. Come check us out, throw us some love & hang out with about a bazillion other hardworking poets and organizers.
If you’ve ever kicked yourself for not getting to this reading or that reading, now is the time to get a taste of what all the city’s various poetry orgs have to offer. No kidding. Check out the FULL SCHEDULE for more info. See ya there!!
