The Full Moon Poetry Club invites you to join in celebrating the Flower Moon (and the end of Pre-Finals week) with an evening of poems! We are holding an open mic night this Friday, May 1, at 7pm at Velvet Fudge. The address is 916 S. Lewis St., and you'll have to make a brief walk down the alley to get to the door, but it's worth it. Feel free to bring family, friends, or even enemies, but only if you'd like to challenge them to a poetry battle.
