Summer Poetry Reading Series

Join Blue Rivers for a three-part online Summer Poetry Reading Series held over Zoom. Each session features poets published on Blue Rivers followed by an opportunity for other attendees to read if time allows.

Sessions are intended as readings rather than workshops: there is no critique, only shared listening, brief Q&A as time permits, and a welcoming space for community. Each session runs for about an hour and aims for roughly 8-10 minutes per reader (a little more if the group is small).

Reading is optional - you can register to listen only, or register and indicate interest in a reading slot via the reader sign-up made available to registrants. The hosts will share the Zoom link and reader sign-up form with those who register through Eventbrite.

The series emphasizes respectful conduct (no hate speech, erotic content, or disruptions) and sessions will not be recorded. Individual sessions stand on their own, so you are welcome to attend one, two, or all three dates.
