Join us between the stacks of Dreamers & Make Believers as the sun sets, where your poetry becomes the light in the dark. This is a space to speak your truth–setting words alight. For this month’s open mic, bring your spookiest poems!

This is a space for writers, artists, and poets. If you have a piece, whether poetry or prose, we want to hear you. Whether you’re raising your voice and stepping to the mic for the first time, or are an experienced veteran of verse, we welcome you to Afterlight! Verse poets, spoken word poets, slam poets–all are welcome. 

This poetry after hours open mic, is led by Baltimore City eco-poet, activist, and author, Hillary Gonzalez, and hosted by the fine folks at Dreamers & Make Believers Books.
