Join River Bend, the West Hartford Public Library, West Hartford Commission on the Arts, and all our fabulous neighbors on Park Road for our first ever Poetry on Park event in celebration of National Poetry Month! Held on Saturday, April 20 from 11am-2pm, the Poetry Walk will run from Effie's Place to Playhouse on Park (91 - 244 Park Road). This free, family-friendly event is open to all.

20+ Local poets will be stationed in front of various businesses on Park Road, sharing their work and reading a few verses as you stroll along. Books are available for purchase from the poets at their booths. River Bend Bookshop will also be featuring the work of an array of local and national poets in the shop.
