A Busboys and Poetry Event hosted this week by Rebecca Dupas

Rebecca is the founder and creative director of A DOSE OF DUPAS, an event-based poetry company that houses several live art events to include Body of Work, a closed-mic series, Coffee & Critiques, a writer's circle, and "Come On Son!", a four- woman poetry collective. This poet, producer, event host & educator has published three CDs of original poetry and recently published a book entitled "The Exchange" in May 2013.
