Florence Poets Society

Thurs., October 9th we'll meet up at the Lilly Library in Florence Mass. @7pm but come early at 6:30pm if you'd like to mingle, share news and hear about a potential reading opportunity coming up in November. Anita will join us and lead a brief discussion about tying in a reading to 30 Poems in November, which is a fundraiser for Center For New Americans (lots of FloPo-ers are signed up). Then, we'll share poetry. Bring one poem to share. All are invited - you do not have to be a member of Florence Poets Society to participate. Each month we have two opportunities to connect. The in-person meeting is the 2nd Thursday and the zoom connection is the 4th Thursday. Email florencepoets @ gmail.com to find out more. 

If you missed the email reminder, here's a heads-up.... FloPo ZOOM meetings resume this Thursday, 9/25, at 6:30 pm.   FloPo zoom meetings are open to all and deliberately scheduled so as not to compete with the in-person meetings. Let’s gather at 6:30 with just a brief period for announcements + zoom shmoozing:)   We begin sharing poetry at 6:45pm.  Please bring one (1) poem to share. If you have a second poem you'd like to share, everyone will read once first and then we'll see if there's still time.  If you missed the reminder email and need the link (or are joining online for the first time) email:    flopozoomlinks@gmail (dot com) for a meeting link:)

Pin the date and mark it on the calendar right now -- it will be a night of fun with (of course) plenty of poetry and also food, bevs, and all of you lovely poetry peeps!
