Featured Readings
On the third Wednesday of every month, poets and poetry lovers meet at Traditions, the Gathering Place, 300 5th Ave SW, in downtown Olympia to read and listen to poetry. These monthly readings are open to the public and free of charge. OPN welcomes donations to the tip jar, available on the table with the open mic sign-up sheet.
The Wednesday evening readings begin at 6:00pm Pacific with a 30-minute Open Mic, followed by a short break and our fabulous featured poet.
Sign-ups for the Open Mic start at 5:30pm Pacific. Each reader has a maximum of 3 minutes. To respect everyone, we strongly recommend that you practice and time your reading.
