Poetry and Joy

Join us for monthly poetry discussions, led by the docents from the UArizona Poetry Center. This event is free, and no preparation or knowledge of poetry is necessary to participate.

For anyone who enjoys poetry or learning more about poetry in a conversational setting, this informal gathering includes many opportunities to contribute to the conversation and ask questions. It is also a great way to meet people in the community who have similar interests.

About the Poetry

This month’s topic will focus on poetry and the emotion of joy and will feature the work of a range of poets.
