"Poetry in Bloom"Monthly Writing Group
led by Danial Orange on October 24th & November 28th
6:00pm - 7:00pm
All ages, by donation, $5 - $10 suggested

"Poetry in Bloom" is a monthly poetry writing group that meets each 4th Wednesday of the month at BloomBars, designed to plant the seeds for new poetry by free-writing using writing prompts, sharing our work, and getting some practice reading aloud. Please bring paper and pen! Danial Orange has been active in the DC poetry scene for the past two years. During that time, he's been a featured performer at Bloombars, Red Alert Wednesdays, Spirits & Lyrics, the Looking Glass Lounge, and the legendary Spit Dat. His ability to write short poems earned him induction into the Haiku Hitmen group and last year one of his haiku was nominated for a NUSPA (National Underground Spoken-Word Poetry Award). Read more.
