Calling all poets, writers, and spoken word artists! Ring in warmer weather with poetry at Poe's Cottage! There will be a short writing prompt before the open mic gets started.
The Bronx is no stranger to the odd poet, and while Edgar Allen Poe might be the most famous, he wasn’t the only outcast writing poems in The Bronx. Join us at Poe Cottage for another night of Odd Poetry, a new, upside down open mic series celebrating urban horror, dark poetry, and the Bronx gothic.
