Dear poets and friends,

It is not without a sense of heaviness that we wish to announce that April 22nd, 2018 is the last session of the Lamplight Poetry Reading series. We have had the tremendous pleasure of servicing the Los Angeles poetry community for nearly 4 years and we both believe that it is now time for us to move on to newer horizons and projects for ourselves.

We would like to thank the White Harte and its owners Gol and Pierre for their continued support month after month, as well as the fantastic staff, and all the brilliant performers that have graced our stage and given us the pleasure of hosting an amazing poetry reading for so long.
