“Across the Mutual Landscape”: Double launch party and open mic!

Join us to celebrate the release of The Worcester Review 45, with a feature section coordinated with Mapping Worcester in Poetry and the Museum of Worcester’s new Poem Next Door exhibit. The feature includes essays on buildings, street corners, parks, and neighborhoods associated with Worcester’s most famous poets — and brand-new poems written in response to those places. As an added bonus, we’ll toast the release of Worcester’s newest poetry journal, Three Decker!

We’ll have a reading of work by contributors to both journals, followed by an open mic (sign up at the event). There will be copies available for purchase and a reception where you can meet authors and editors! The Poem Next Door exhibit will be open for viewing at 5:30 pm, and the program begins at 6 pm. This event is free in honor of the Museum of Worcester’s 150th anniversary, but registration is strongly encouraged.
