There will be refreshments and comfy couches to sit and share. This is a free event but donations will be accepted for the Station 8 community fridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next up will be a writers&#8217; open mic on Sunday, April 26. All are invited to come out to this afternoon event at the Bill Johnstone Activity Centre to share their work or just listen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The month will end with a special evening of poetry on April 28 at 6 pm at town council chambers, where Tantramar&#8217;s own Poet Laureate Laura Watson and the local Poetry Month Contest winners will read their original poems. The municipality also welcomes others to read their favourite poem at the event.
