Wednesday Night Poetry is prepping a few changes for the new year, so I thought I'd post one of the 2006 series posters I made, (click on it for a larger image) as an excuse to gab about it a bit.
Snow And Ice -- This past winter Wedpoetry was canceled at the last minute at least four times (it might have been more) for bad-ass storms that made travel hazardous. So this winter, the series is going to take a winter break starting after its meeting on Dec 14th. through January and February. The first meetup of the new year will be March 7, 2012, when the all new 2012 Wednesday Poetry will begin.
Coming soon -- Tomorrow, (Nov 30) is a Leonard Cohen themed open mic, followed by a workshop. Next week (Dec 7), the feature had to cancel , there will be an open mic but the rest of the evening program is still to be determined. The feature On Dec 14, the last meeting of 2011, there is a four-person panel discussion called Putting Your Poetry Collection Together! Panelists include Brad Davis, Leslie McGrath, Claire Zoghb and Faith Vicinanza. During the open mic - it;s Grinch Night.
Changes in offing for 2012 are still up in the air. The group will likely be meeting in a different venue, and format may change a bit as well. To mark the change, all entries on the wedpoetry wordpress website have been archived to a site called http://wedpoetrypast.wordpress.com. So if you have a link to a reading you did there that now is broken - just slip the word "past" into the address and it should work.
