Women Writers in Bloom - March

You're invited to Women Writers Bloom Poetry Salon's "Spring" Potluck Salon & Open Mic of 2022! Join us Sun, March 20th from 2:30 to 5pm EST as we kick off Spring. Fabulous featured poets include: DESIREE C. BAILEY, TAFISHA A. EDWARDS, JENNIFER MARTELLI and DARA KALIMA Your fave co-hosts CYNTHIA MANICK & JP HOWARD return! Our community and our writers are resilient and during these challenging times we come together in creative ways to celebrate that we are here, our voices are powerful and also to confirm that poetry shared is poetry that heals. JP Howard will share a link to a few writing prompts that you can use later, then we will meet briefly in small zoom break-out rooms to check in with each other. Our talented featured writers will each share their powerful work.

We will end with an open mic and will try to accommodate as many writers as we can. Once you register your zoom confirmation email will contain a link to sign up in advance for an open mic slot. Each Open Mic poet can ONLY share one poem or other genre piece, no longer than 2 to 3 minutes MAX.

Registration is open! https://tinyurl.com/thdp27t7
