Parenting Poets Open Mic
Saturday, April 26, 2025
1:00pm to 2:00pm
Part of: Edmonton Poetry Festival
26
Co-hosted by Jennifer Bowering Delisle (Edmonton) and Sneha Madhavan-Reese (Ottawa), this online open mic will feature readings from poets who identify as parents–though poems need not be about parenting.
Open mic signup will take place at the start of the event — first-come, first-served. Although everyone is welcome to attend the event, open mic spots are reserved for those who identify as parents.
This event is organized by the League of Canadian Poets Parenting Poets Committee and will not be recorded.
Registration: Free and limited. A link to secure your spot (and receive your Zoom invitation) is TBA, so stay tuned!
