The Tortured Poets Parlor: Taylor Swift x Emily Dickinson Celebration
The Tortured Poets Parlor
Taylor Swift & Emily Dickinson Celebration
Did you know that Taylor Swift and Emily Dickinson are related? Yes! They're sixth cousins, three times removed!
In honor of National Poetry Month (and for the Swifties out there), The Book Lounge and Julie Edelman of Literary Sips invite you to a spirited evening where the wit of Emily Dickinson mingles with the lyricism of Taylor Swift.
Date: April 23rd | 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM
Tickets: $35
Expect an evening equal parts refined and playful—where vintage parlor charm meets modern-day Swiftie energy. Think folklore, clever wordplay, a touch of drama, crafty fun, and just enough mischief to keep things interesting.
What To Expect:
-
A complimentary welcome cocktail
-
Eras Tour–style friendship bracelet making
-
Themed snacks and curated charcuterie
-
Lyrics vs. Verses: Literary-Oke — a game where we explore who the real Swifties are

Guests are encouraged (but not mandated!) to dress in their interpretation of Contemporary Victorian elegance—corsets and cardigans both welcome.
Join us for an evening of poetry, performance, and a little bit of chaos—in the most elegant way possible.
