Ancient City Poets invite you to share your original poetry in an open theme format, so anything goes.

Share your polished poems or bust out fresh ink from your notebook during St. Augustine’s longest-running open mic poetry event. Invite a friend or two or three.
Ancient City Poets has always been open to the public and there is no charge at the door to get your name on the list.

If you would like to share a poem, please see the facilitator at 2:30 to get your name on the list on the day of the event. There is space on the list for 15 poets at 5 minutes each. At 3:00 PM, the readers will be called to the podium in the order their names appear on the sign-up sheet.
