Petals & Thorns: The Open Mic Experience

This is not a traditional open mic. Petals & Thorns: The Open Mic Experience is a curated poetry space designed to be felt, not just filled. Real words. Real people. Real connection. Created by The Poet Lady Rose in collaboration with Novel Book Bar, this is an intimate, intentional gathering where poets are selected in advance, audiences actually listen, and every voice in the room is held with care.
