Third Thursday is a monthly poetry program in partnership with Poetry Center San José and hosted by Mighty Mike McGee!

Sign up for the open mic begins at 6:30pm. Featured poet begins shortly after 7pm. Open mic to follow.

Our guest poet tonight is K.K. Mills!

K.K. Mills, a seasoned poet and performer with an MFA in Theater and an MA in Literary Arts, returned to the poetry scene in San Jose earlier this year, after a two-decade hiatus. In addition to performing, Mills has written several plays and a two-woman show, published poetry and essays, taught workshops and college courses in performance, literature and creative writing. At this point in her career, she is best described a spoken word artist, poet, and writer. PCSJ's October 17th Third Thursday Open Mic will be the first time Mills has been the featured reader in San José in over 20 years. Her current work reflects on the changes over those years in poetic content and performance style.
