Got Plans... for Poetry? 
If not, MHC has the solution for you with the Poetry's Here @ Your Maryland Library! This program offers a roster of events that celebrates Maryland poetry and poets, and encourages you to contribute a verse. This month, embrace visual art, learn about different styles of poetry, write your own poems, and read your work with "LOVE the poet" at the "Live Lyrics!: Interpretive Poetry" workshop. Meanwhile, poet Mary Azrael encourages participants to write a poem and make a hand-crafted book with the workshop "Binding Spines: A Bookmaking Project." Check out MHC's calendar of events to learn about these and other informative and interactive poetry happenings! | |
