Poetry at the Silverton Fine Arts Festival

Open Mike Poetry Reading

August 17

The Silverton Poetry Association will sponsor a free open mic poetry reading on Sunday, August 17, at 2 p.m. in the classroom of the Silverton Arts Center in Coolidge-McClain Park.  All are welcome to share their own or other poems or just to listen and enjoy the art of poetry.

Tree Poems

August 16 & 17

Inspired by the love poems to Rosalind that Orlando hangs on trees in the Forest of Arden in Shakespeare's "As You Like It,"  The poems found on tree trunks throughout Coolidge-McClain Park are a Fine Arts Festival tradition contributed by members of the Silverton Poetry Association.
