Hemingway's Poetry Series
2026 Schedule
The Hemingway's Summer Poetry series, founded by poet Jimmy Cvetic, celebrates its 52nd Anniversary season for eight evenings on the second and fourth Tuesdays of May, June, July and August: May 12, May 26, June 9, June 23, July 14, July 28, August 11 and August 25 - at 7 p.m. (And we do make every effort to start on time.)
This year, again, the series will be hosted by
Hop Farm Brewing Co. at 5601 Butler Street in Lawrenceville
The series was generously hosted by White Whale Bookstore in recent years, but the new venue at Hop Farm Brewing allows us to expand programming, preserve the open mic, and provide a setting with outstanding brews, delicious food and a larger, more airy, space.
Thanks to Matt Gouwens, founder of Hop Farm Brewing Company, for continuing to provide the series with a home. For more details, go to http://www.hopfarmbrewingco.com
