Poetry Express

Poetry Express from the Maine Humanities Council

Community members are INVITED TO PARTICIPATE by selecting a poem, discussing it in a workshop, and reading in a community setting. Poems will be available in July, and participants will select their favorite outdoor place to record their reading. This is a fantastic opportunity to share the place you love and the poem that speaks to you. Call our Main Circulation Desk (207-647-2472) or email (bplreference@bridgton.lib.me.us) for more information.
