Welcome to 7/7/19 Poetic License monthly poetry open mic in Austin!     During the July 7th 2019 Poetic License open mic at the Austin Texas Recycled Reads bookstore (a bookstore affiliated with the Austin Public Library), host Janet Kuypers welcomes poets, musicians, and even short story / micro-prose tellers together on the first Sunday of every month from 3:30 - 5:30 PM for two hours of round-robin readings, where all participants have the opportunity to share 3 poems, or 2 poems and one song, or 2 songs (prose can be used for poetry) regularly in the G-rated open mic (because this bookstore may have children in the store with adults).
