The Incessant Pipe Poetry Salon will meet on the 4th Tuesday of every month at 7pm upstairs in the Salem Athenaeum. “The Pipe” is a space to read poetry, yours or others, and discuss everything from the price of tea in China to quantum particles (as long as it relates back to poetry). All styles of poetry are welcome.
According to Reading Is Fundamental, over 93 million adults in the U.S. read at or below the basic level needed to contribute successfully to society. Literacy remains a core educational and social issue. This salon shines a light on local efforts to improve literacy by fostering a love of reading at an early age. Join us this Friday for the final salon of the summer, which will be indoors.
Mark your calendars for the best book sale of the Fall!
Members, plus one guest, have the opportunity to attend the Member’s Preview Book Sale on Friday night, before it opens to the public on Saturday morning.
