At the beginning of the month, I mentioned that we have some great events planned here at Missoula Public Library for National Poetry Month and I promised to fill you in on them later. Since it's later now, here's the scoop:
Kid's Poetry Read-Out
Grade school students, we would love to hear your original poems! Come to the Children's Department at 3:30pm on Thursday, April 16th and share with us!
Montana's Historic Poets
You've probably heard of E. E. Cummings, but how about J. V. Cunningham? No? Then come join us in the Large Meeting Room on Thursday, April 16th at 7pm. Guest speaker Professor Tami Haaland will be lecturing on the lives and writings of Montana poets of the early twentieth century. Partial funding for the Speakers Bureau program is provided by a legislative grant from Montana's Cultural Trust and from NEH's "We the People" program.
Teen Open Mic
Are you between the ages of 13 and 18 with original poetry that you'd like to share? Then join us on the lower level of the library by eddie's coffeeshop on Thursday, April 16th at 4pm and let your voice be heard.
Hope to see you all there!
