Otter Creek Poets
Thursdays, 1:00pm - 3:00pm (Conference Room)
In person at 75 Main Street beginning September 3, 2026!
WELCOME TO THE OTTER CREEK POETS! For over 20 years a group of poets has met weekly in the library to discuss our work together. The workshop’s emphasis is to help each other improve the effectiveness of their new and revised work. Sharing your writing is rewarding, but isn’t always easy. The Otter Creek Poets know how to be supportive of both the poet and the poem. Writers and aspiring writers of all ages and levels of experience are welcome, as are poems in all forms and styles. The workshop is free to all. For more information, contact David Weinstock by email at david.weinstock@gmail.com, or by phone and text at 802-989-4314.
