Joining featured Poet Laureate Gibson Fay-LeBland will be Maine-based writers Rebecca Irene, Jacob Fricke, meg willing, Rufus Nicoll, and Julia Bouwsma.

The cost to attend Poetry Night is $10, with a portion of the proceeds going to the Maine Writers & Publishers Alliance, which specifically supports female writers in the midcoast region.
