The Haven Reading Series is the main event for Stroll of Poet members to share their poetry in front of a supportive audience in an atmosphere which is both friendly and inviting. The series runs every-other Monday evening.

Each Haven features four Stroll members who have signed up for their 10-minute reading in advance. Each Haven also features a two-minute-per-reader open mic. It’s a chance for new attendees and existing members alike to share their work – and to get newcomers hooked on the Stroll! The Stroll does its best to prioritize new readers or first time readers, so come one, come all!

To learn more about who the Haven readers will be, you can visit the Stroll of Poets Society website by [clicking here].

Admission: $5 cash at the door.

Registration: No registration required. Just show up!
