The St. Johns Cultural Council and St. Augustine PoetFest present “Poetic Love: A Celebration of the Heart”

Readers are invited to present poems that relate to love: the good, the bed, and the ugly”. Love is a battlefield. The look of love. The book of love. All you need is love.

Invite a friend or two or three to cheer you on.
A sign-up sheet will be available at 2:30 and the open mic will start at 3:00 PM. Readers will be called to the podium in the order their names appear on the list. The mic will be turned off at 4:30 to allow the last 30 minutes for a meet and greet and networking.
Let your poetic words flow through the Waterworks and through the streets of St. Augustine.
