Thursday, April 13, 5pm - 7pm
Join us for an evening of reading and open mic poetry at the bookstore! We are gathering poets from Jackson Hole to share their poetry and encourage others to step up to the mic. All are welcome.
Poets throughout the valley will gather at 5 p.m. Thursday, April 13, to share their work in the third installment of Teton Verse, an evening of poetry co-hosted by Jackson Hole Writers and Jackson Hole Book Trader. The event will take place at the Jackson Hole Book Trader, located in the Powderhorn Mall, 970 West Broadway, Jackson, Wyoming.
Similar to the first Teton Verses, held in 2020 and 2022, the event will include scheduled time for local poets and an open mic for guests to share their work.
In addition, two local poets will be given the stage to highlight their poetry collections: Susan Marsh, who published This Earth Has Been Too Generous through Finishing Line Press last year, and Matt Daly, who released Between Here and Home through Unsolicited Press in 2019. Both poets will be available throughout the evening to sign copies of their collections.
Anyone interested in reading their own poetry should contact Matt Daly to be added to the reading schedule. Time is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Those who prefer reading or reciting via open mic, simply introduce yourself that evening. All are welcome to this free event. Light refreshments to be served.
