Poet Kathleen Wakefield has found that experiencing the reading of poetry in community opens it up in new ways for everyone, whether you’ve always loved poetry or had less than positive experiences with it! No prior experience with poetry is necessary. Sweet Bites will be held monthly on Thursdays at 10 – 11:15 AM, at Mendon Public Library. Participants are welcome to come to any or all of the sessions: Apr 16, May 21, and Jun 18. Registration is required.
Mon-Thu 9-8; Fri 9-5; Sat 9-3
