Seattle’s own A.K. “Mimi” Allin, the Poetess at Green Lake, is curating another amazing poetry event this Thursday, June 11, in the Seattle Art Museum’s downtown galleries. What will you see this time around? How does 100 poets on escalators, in galleries, atop balconies, draped over the grand staircase whispering poems and creating impasses sound? To me it sounds like Mimi’s doing her magic again.

When: June 11, 8-9 p.m.
Where: Seattle Art Museum
Why: Because you love poetry, you love Mimi, and it’s FREE (with museum admission)

You can learn more about the event here. To find out more about Mimi’s work and words, visit her site.
