Poetry Appreciation Society

Thursday, November 19, 2026 7:00—8:00 PM Trustees Room Maynard Public Library 77 Nason St, Maynard, MA, 01754 Time moves so fast and we don't often get the time to sit and appreciate a good poem. So let's change that - this meet up will focus on a different poet each month. Led by poet Rebecca Connors, we'll get a brief bio and details of the poet, and then spend the rest of the time reading a few poems by the author. While we enjoy the music and the voice, we'll use this time to explore how we connect to the poems. This is open to adults and teens 15 and up, no experience in poetry needed. This is just a chance to be in community and appreciate what poetry opens for us. November's poet is Gerard Manley Hopkins. Poetry collections by the selected poet will be at the Circulation Desk. Register online between 9/15/2025 9:00 AM and 12/31/2026 8:45 PM.
