Poets at the Top of Fort Greene Park: A Celebration of National Poetry Month

Recite your own words; read the poetry and prose of writers known and unknown; create new works and share them with the audience. “Poets at the Top of Fort Greene Park” is an informal, hour-long gathering of people who love writing and people who love hearing writers speak. Open to all, everyone is invited. Speak loudly, these events are unamplified!
