Tuesday, Mar. 6th – Port Veritas Slam Team Fundraiser
We’re gearing up for National Poetry Month. During April we will be having several special events including the Portland Maine Slam Team Semi Finals. It’s time to start preparing to send a team of poets to represent Maine this year at the 2012 National Poetry Slam in Charlotte, NC.
Tomorrow night we’ll be having our first fundraiser kick off. The evening will consist of a “sumthin’ in the bucket” open reading. If you’d like to read in the open we ask that you drop…well…sumthin’ in the bucket. You can give a dollar per poem or $20…we prefer $20. We’ll also raffle off several books and trinkets and have a 50/50 raffle.
We also will have several copies of our first poetry anthology “Safe Harbor” at the discounted price of $5 per copy. This will also serve as a reminder that we are currently accepting submissions for our second anthology now throught the end of March. If interested please send a handful of poems to be considered. They must have been read on our stage at some point. Please send submissions via email to info@portveritas.com make sure to include your full name and titles of the pieces.
I’d also like to remind people that they can donate or signup anytime as a PV member by clicking the donate or subscribe links on our homepage. If you wish to donate directly to the team please note that during the donation process.
Thank you!
