Second Sundays: Play Reading & Open Mic Poetry Series


Got poetry? Want to talk about what's going on in the world? You should check out our FREE Second Sunday events, 4-6 pm at Opera Piccola, 2946 MacArthur Blvd, Oakland. You can park free in the Oakland Ballet lot next door.

Our first meeting was amazing. We were so moved when a young teen named Charlotte wept while reading her poem about losing her mother and brother. The play reading prompted some very interesting discussion about bullying, obesity, rape, racism and other challenging topics.

We need more folks to come and share their poems. It is so wonderful to hear the creativity out there!!
