Sip & Share Love-Themed Poetry at Newsfeed Cafe
In honor of Valentine’s Day, Newfeed Cafe invites you to join local poets Kurt Klopmeier and Krysten Hill as they host an open mic of love-themed poetry for the in-love, lovesick, lovelorn, and forlorn.
In partnership with Mass Poetry, Newsfeed Cafe is inviting all poetry fans to bring a favorite poem about the effects of Cupid’s arrow, either pleasurable or painful. Fortify yourself with a glass of liquid courage, and give a recitation to a crowd of fellow lovers of vino and verse, who’ll be there to cheer you on. Whether you read a poem of your own or one by Christina Rossetti or The Beatles, don’t worry; no one will judge. Just bring your chosen poem and join in the love and fun!
Your ticket ($10) includes a free drink. Wine of all varieties will be plentiful, as well as a broad selection of craft beers, house-made sodas, and barista beverages. Guests will also receive a snack bag with their purchase, with further food available to order at the counter. Valid ID required for purchase of alcohol.
