Love poetry?
The Cat Musings open mic is marking National Poetry Month with an all-poetry session at the New West Artists Gallery (712C 12th St.). It’s set for Wednesday, April 17 from 7 to 9 p.m., and doors will open at 6:30 p.m.
Janene White will host the session, which features Lilija Valis and Enrico Renz, with special guest Alan Hill, the poet laureate of the City of New Westminster.
If you love writing poetry - regardless of your experience level - you can also sign yourself up for a blue pencil session with the poet laureate himself. Hill is hosting Solo with the Polo sessions on Tuesday, April 16; Tuesday May 21; and Tuesday, June 18 from 7:15 to 9 p.m. at the New West Artists Gallery.
You can sign up for a free 20-minute spot by emailing [email protected]. Bring two poems and get Hill’s advice on poetry and publishing. The sessions are for poets of all abilities, and beginners are welcome.
