April is National Poetry Month, and on Saturday, April 14, the Mattapoisett Free Public Library will be hosting a poetry reading featuring two Boston-based poets, Clara Silverstein and Grey Held, in honor of the month-long celebration. The event, which is sponsored by the Friends of the Mattapoisett Library, is free and will begin at 2:00 pm.
“When I first came to the Mattapoisett Library, I was presently surprised in the great interest in poetry in the community,” said Library Director Susan Pizzolato. “In addition to the readings, we’ll have displays all over the library and there will be a lot going on in all of the departments. There’s usually great attendance for this event and it generates a lot of interest.”
Following the reading, a book signing with the authors will be held and refreshments will be served. For more information, contact the library at 508-758-4171.
