Our September featured poet is Lloyd Schwartz, third Poet Laureate of Somerville, Massachusetts. We will meet in the Garden of the John Greenleaf Whittier Home at 86 Friend Street, Amesbury MA. The featured reading will be followed by an open mic. Be prepared for some Elizabeth Bishop poetry. Lloyd knew her and I’m a huge fan.

NOTE THE CHANGE IN TIME. We will open up the garden to guests at 4:30 pm and light refreshments will be served. The John Greenleaf Whittier Home will be open for brief tours starting at 5 pm. THIS READING WILL BEGIN AT 5:30 PM.
