For 35 years poets and poetry lovers have gathered annually at San Carlos Restaurant for a live reading, a literary tradition which will continue at 1 p.m. Sunday, March 24.

Everyone is welcome to come and read, or just listen, explained event organizer and Island Treasure Award-winner Nancy Rekow. The festivities often carry over into the evening as folks stick around and munch and sip and chat.

The bar will be open, and dinner available after the reading.
