Avantpop Bookstore to Host Poetry in the Reading Room
On Sunday, September 24th, from 6–8:30 PM, Avantpop Bookstore hosts their second seasonal event, “Intimate Evenings of ‘Outcasts’ Poetry in the Reading Room.” This event is the first of their themed poetry nights this year hosted at the Office of Collecting and Design of Las Vegas.
According to Sugar Laytart, co-owner of Avantpop, “the whole space is beautifully decorated” and features a cozy Reading Room for poetry reading. Due to the small space with 10-15 people capacity, Avantpop titled the event ‘Intimate Evening.’
“The series was originally created to build up to our Poetry Arcade, an all-day event featuring many local poets,” Laytart said. “We will be doing the Poetry Arcade again in December after our 5-night series.”
Purchase your ticket for the ‘Outcasts’ event here for $15.
