About Shabe Sher
Shabe Sher is a politically and religiously agnostic gathering formed solely
to better familiarize less than dextrose Iranian-speaking individuals with
the works of such superlative poets as Hafez, Rumi, Saedi, Baba Taher, and
over a hundred other great poets. The events are freely structured; that
is, you are not required to read, speak, or do anything whatsoever. Simply
come equipped with a deep passion for life and a voracious thirst for
learning about the Iranian culture.
Shabe Sher is regularly held on the second Tuesday (or Wednesday) of every
month at the Bowery Poetry Club.
