SMCC Midcoast Campus hosts Poetry and Popcorn
Brunswick – On Tuesday, April 23rd, poetry lovers will have the opportunity to enjoy well-known and not so well-known local poets reading their own work at the Southern Maine Community College Midcoast Campus. The events will be called Poetry and Popcorn. There will be two separate sessions, an afternoon session at 1:00 and an evening session at 6:30. Both are open and free to the public. Each event will include an hour of poetry followed by a popcorn reception. The College chose to offer popcorn because the Midcoast students have fallen in love with their movie theatre popcorn machine and they request popcorn at every event.
The poets for the afternoon program include award-winning poet Jim Thatcher, along with Paul Dostie, Elizabeth Potter and members of the Wiscasset Adult and Community Education Program Writing Circle. The poets for the evening program include Helene McLaughlin, Joyce Pye, Maryli Tiemann, Margie Kivel, and two talented SMCC student poets.
The Poetry and Popcorn events will take place in the Hannaford Auditorium in the Academic Building on the SMCC MidcoastCampus at Brunswick Landing. For directions or more information contact Nancy Collins at 844-2064 orNCollins@smccME.edu. Directions to the campus are available at http://www.smccME.edu/midcoast.
