Bards & Brews, the Birmingham Public Library's popular monthly spoken-word poetry/craft beer program, is going on road again, this time at The Grill at Iron City, a venue at 2208 6th Ave. South on Birmingham’s Southside.

Open mic poetry performances will take place from 6:30 to 9:00 p.m. Friday, August 2, with Voice Porter serving as host and emcee. Food and beer will be available for purchase inside The Grill at Iron City.

Bards & Brews received national attention in March 2019 when it was featured by traveling poet Anna Weaver of Charlotte, N.C., who shared her poetry talents in Birmingham a month earlier. Alabama was  the 20th state Weaver has visited while on a campaign to spotlight open mic poetry events in all 50 states.

Join us for an unforgettable night featuring many of metro Birmingham's best spoken word poets sharing their work in one of the city’s most popular nightspots.
