Poetry reading a huge success!

Monday night's poetry reading was a huge success, with 96 people attending! The room was packed! Many young poets read their work as their parents and friends looked on. A few poets chose to receive their books without reading their poems, but everyone received hearty applause. Guest poets Jayne Warren and Zoe Mason, students from the writing studio at the Walnut Hill School, entertained the crowd by reading poems from their younger days, and then closed the program by reading some of their more recent work. It was an inspiring night.
