Hope for the Journey: A Poetry Open Mic ft Bethany Lee
Advertisement
On Friday July 5 at 7:30pm, Poetics Corvallis presents a poetry open mic featuring nature poet-harpist-sailor Bethany Lee, the poetry editor of Untold Times. Her approach to the poetic soul may surprise you! And in honor of the holiday weekend, if you have any firecrackling poetry to share be sure to bring it!
We will start with Bethany's poetry at 7:30pm, with Open Mic to follow. Open Mic signup starts at 7:15pm. Come share poems or poetic prose that you like, by you or by another, on any topic, at our friendly free open mic in the artsy ambience of the InterZone Cafe. Or come to just listen, and let poetry dissolve, at least for a moment, the walls between us all.
More about Bethany:
Bethany Lee lives and writes in Lafayette, Oregon in a house at the edge of the woods. Her writing is often inspired by the space at the edge of things--her experiences as a hospice harpist, the year she spent traveling by sea, and the deep silence of her Quaker practice. She is the poetry editor at Untold Volumes, works as a composer and musician, and recently released her third poetry collection, The Coracle and the Copper Bell, and a memoir, Close to the Surface, about the year her family spent traveling at sea, both from Fernwood Press. Her work has been published in multiple anthologies and in VoiceCatcher, Kosmos Quarterly, Geez Magazine, and other journals. Find out more about her writing or music at bethanyjoylee.com
