Cathlamet Library presents poetry Open Mic Night

In partnership with Delphine Criscenzo from the Little Island Creamery, The Cathlamet Public Library is sponsoring the first ever Cathlamet Library Open Mic night. The event will take place at 6 p.m. on Friday April 25, at the Pioneer Community Center (125 Columbia St.). This event is a great opportunity for you to grab the microphone and read some poetry, the lyrics of a favorite song, tell a story, or maybe perform your own rhymey piece that you’ve always wanted to share.

Library staff are encouraging folks to come, bring the kids, and read a ditty or even tell a funny joke or two. This event is open for people of all ages to simply have a good time, share a short piece, and enjoy the company of others.

Our Librarian, Vicki Franklin, and Delphine Chriscenzo decided to sponsor this event in recognition of April as Poetry Month. Open Mic Night is free, but if you want to give a donation, the library would be grateful. Bring the whole family, and maybe a friend or two. The only thing they ask is that you limit your sharing to seven minutes.
