What to Do This Weekend: Poetry and Cocktails
This weekend, the Academy of American Poets is hosting a poetry slam and cocktail party at Back Forty in honor of National Poetry Month. Test the literary prowess of mixologists from bars like Clover Club, Ward III, and the Beagle, who will create cocktails inspired by their favorite poems. The host of the evening, the poet Bob Holman, will then recite each poem, with the corresponding cocktail in hand.
