InterAct Open Mic with Featured Poet Veronica Kornberg

InterAct Open Mic at Satori Arts. FREE community poetry jam featuring Veronica Kornberg Are you ready to get your poetry on? Join us on Dec. 15, 2026 at Satori Arts for InterAct, a FREE open mic night, from 7-9 pm, featuring poet Veronica Kornberg. A Bay Area poet, Veronica Kornberg splits her time between Portola Valley and Pescadero. She is the recipient of the Morton Marcus Poetry Prize, and the Wandering Aengus Book Award in Poetry. Her poems have appeared in Alaska Quarterly Review, New Ohio Review, Poet Lore, Catamaran, Plume, and Calyx, among other journals. Her first full-length collection, Strange Gift, was published in April 2026. When she’s not writing, she’s on her knees in the dirt, converting an acre of ice plant into a habitat garden of native coastal scrub. Come share your spoken word work or poetry with the community, or come out to support our local readers! Sign up to read starting at 6:30 pm. Limited seating. For more information, visit https://www.satoriarts.org/upcoming-events. 1st and 3rd Tuesdays. Free. Satori Arts, 815 Almar, #9, Santa Cruz (warehouse building near the back, follow signs)
