Join Freeport Folio, Freeport Community Library and Lynne Schmidt, the 2025 Maine Literary Arts Fellow, in the exploration of pet love and pet loss.

Come share your work or just enjoy the experience with the featured poet Betsy Sholl, Poet Laureate of Maine, 2006 to 2011

In this workshop, “Pressure Makes Diamonds,” we will use the pressure of workshopping an original poem and then reading that poem at an open mike that same evening.

Join Poets Lynne Schmidt, Joseph Coleman, and Workshop Poets for music and a poetry reading at the Freeport Community Library.
