CORRECTION--April's event is in the AVERY THEATER of The Wadsworth Atheneum.
Riverwood Poetry Series will be going on hiatus during the construction of the new spaces at Real Art Ways. We plan to return when the dust settles. For April’s National Poetry Month, we invited Mark Doty to read with us at the Avery Theater in the Wadsworth Atheneum on April 8, 7 pm. Stay tuned for an announcement with more details about his reading when it’s a bit closer to the event. As always, we truly appreciate everyone who has joined us over the years and love to hear your voices at our open mic.
See you again soon!
