ROCKLAND — April is National Poetry Month, and the Good Tern Gallery is hosting a reception for its Poetry & Art X mail-in exhibition at Hole in the Wall Bagels, 754 Main Street in Rockland, on Sunday, April 7, beginning at 2 p.m. The reception will be held at the Good Tern’s Hole in the Wall Bagel Shop. The public is invited to attend.
