Midnight Voices

“the young dead soldiers do not speak,
Nevertheless they are heard in the still houses: who has not heard them?
they have a silence that speaks for them at night when the clock counts”
Archibald MacLeish

Calling all poets, slammers, word smiths, lyricists, play writes, rappers, misfits, musicians and anyone who has the gift of gab! We are hosting Midnight Voices, a monthly collaborative coffeehouse, spoken word, and poetry series at Friends Meetinghouse Cambridge (5 Longfellow Park) 7pm October 16, 2014. This event is open to everyone. This month’s featured reader is Alan Asselin. Alan is a featured poet in Warrior Writers forth anthology (available at our event). He is also a facilitator for Warrior Writers and frequently hosts writing workshops. He is a Vietnam era veteran.

We are actively seeking co-sponsors and talent to be featured readers in upcoming months.
