Poets take us on a freewheeling exploration of the Mount's grounds with stops along the way to share their original work.
This is a walking/stopping event where we all (audience and poets) walk together with stops along the way to share poems. Although the walk is short and the Mount's grounds are well maintained, walking shoes are strongly advised.

WordXWord events are FREE and open to all, however, some poems may contain content or language best suited for teens and adults.
