Dandelions Holiday Special, With Gregory Woods and Open Mic

About this event

Dandelions Poetry is very pleased to be back at Five Leaves for our special event between Christmas and New Year. We’re also very pleased to have Gregory Woods reading for us. If you’ve heard Gregory read before, you’ll know that it’s the kind of reading where you are so caught up in the words, you forget everything else. What better way to mark the in-between time, when one year is becoming another. We’ll also have an encouraging and friendly open mic, so email [email protected] if you’d like to read.
