With poet and MC SimplySherri
Teens! Do you have poetry inside you? Let it out! In observance of National Poetry Month, we are presenting this Teen Poetry Open Mic session with Simply Sherri.
Host and presenter Simply Sherri’s accessible writing style and enjoyable performance offer a revealing reflection of her world that goes straight to the heart.
Simply Sherri is unafraid to examine the totality of a black woman’s life, poetically illuminating subjects such as depression, misogyny and abuse, and surviving the political climate. Knowing how important it is to connect and share with young people, she has conducted workshops for DC Scores. She has also volunteered with DewMore Baltimore, becoming a “poetry auntie” to many.
This program will take place in the social hall on the second floor of the Wheaton Library and Community Recreation Center.
Sponsored by Friends of the Library, Montgomery County.

Their performance will include classical, children’s and contemporary pieces. Koto is a 13-string traditional Japanese instrument which creates a very simple, clean and clear sound.
The presenters will also discuss the cultural context of the koto. The Washington Toho Koto Society was founded in 1971, and is a nonprofit group of koto players and friends, primarily in the Washington metropolitan area. Their founder, Kyoko Okamoto, has played and taught koto for more than 50 years, contributing to the promotion of Japanese music and culture in the United States, and promoting friendly relations between the two countries.
