The Poet's Loft is a comfortable, relaxing venue that supports the visual and performing arts community of Arkansas. For local performing artists there are Wednesday nights usually with a "Featured Performer" kicking off the evening at 8:00 pm followed by "Open Mic" for music or poetry. Performers with original material can book the stage as a "Featured Entertainer" for Friday or Saturday nights. Also, The Spa City Poetry Slam and Arkansas Poetry Grand Slam are scheduled events throughout the year.
   So whether you are in the mood for viewing the works of local artists, or hearing great poetry or a musical event, The Poet's Loft welcomes you.
   Please visit The Poet's Loft web site to see the schedule of events and information about the artists and performers.

The photographs listed here were taken by me at The Poet's Loft. In addition to showing the photos on the web they are being hung on the walls of the Loft.
