This event will take place at the Tucson Hop Shop, 3230 N. Dodge Blvd. 

This event is a chance to join with other poetry readers and participants in the Sealey Challenge, and enjoy a happy hour together while reading poetry.  Event will include a poetry 'swap' table--bring books you've finished and would like to give away, and take home something new from someone else.  

What is the Sealey Challenge?  We're glad you asked.  From chapbooks to full-length collections, participants in the Sealey Challenge commit to reading a book of poetry each day in August.

The goals are simple: read a book each day, engage with diverse voices and be an active member of an online  (and sometimes in person) community of poetry lovers.  Check out #TheSealeyChallenge (or #SealeyChallenge) on facebook, twitter and instagram for inspiration and recommendations, or stop by the Poetry Center for reading recommendations.
