Boom Town Makers Market

Grab your original work and head down to the Makers Market for our very first poetry night! Bring a poem or spoken word piece that you would love to read. Freestyle. Grab a friend and see what else our community has to offer. Open for all ages however some poems may not be suitable for younger audiences (as it is open-mic). 

Coffee and some refreshments will be provided with a small donation to the Market.
