Play With Lou, Why Don’t You? SERIES presents
A “BILLY COLLINS” BACCHANAL POETRY SALON
Sip and explore the sly brilliance of America’s beloved Poet Laureate, Billy Collins. We’ll unpack how his deceptively simple language creates poetry that’s witty, poignant, and deeply observant—then turn our attention to what we know best: the funky, fabulous rhythms of Hudson.
Together, we’ll write our own poems in the Collins tradition and share them in a convivial group reading. Play your cards right—there just might be a publication.
Free for Members (promo code shared)
$15 for Non-Members
