About Us

Founded by Pete Justus and the late Jack Schafer, we are proud to bring an open space to any and all from first-time readers to seasoned performers alike from within the International Youth Hostel each and every Friday night. Each reader gets 6 minutes. We usually have a featured reader each week. We often feature some of the best local and national poets at our humble venue.
