Poets on the move
The longtime Wednesday Night Poetry Readings in Hot Springs will have a change of address starting Wednesday. The new venue is Kollective Coffee + Tea, a new coffee house at 110 Central Ave. Organizers hope the new location will attract younger poets since the previous location (the bar Maxine's) was age-restricted. Readings begin at 7 p.m. with an open mic session and admission is free. Call (501) 617-1238 or email dodsonchuck@gmail.com.
