First Wednesday Formal is a new monthly reading series focusing on formal poetry.  For our inaugural reading, we will feature local, nationally-known poet Sandra M. Gilbert.  The evening will include an open mic and a brief interview/Q&A with Ms. Gilbert.  Special guest "mini-feature":  Toby Bielawski, Albany Poet Laureate.

The readings are held at St. Alban's Episcopal Church, from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. on the first Wednesday of each month.  For more information about the series or the featured readers, visit the website (listed below).
