World Peace Poets invites your participation in the five-week-long World Peace Poets Community
Write-In on Peace and Justice, September 21 through October 26, 2019. Drop
in for a few minutes or an hour or more; join in as often as you’d like. It’s
self-directed!
Free and open to the
public, the Community Write-In provides sites around Bellingham where
participants can sit and create poems, essays, short stories, or artwork. Bring your own writing materials.
Some inspiring words will be available and a volunteer will be on hand at each
site. Additionally, each site will create a “fusion poem” to which participants
can add a line of their own.
Note that new venues and times
may be added, so watch for updates on World Peace Poets on Facebook. If you think
you will participate on one or more days, please register by sending an email
to worldpeacepoets@gmail.com or sign-in at the door(s).
The Write-In will
culminate in the free World
Peace Poets Read-In at St. James Presbyterian Church 910-14th Street in
Bellingham on Saturday, October 26, 2019, with a 3-minute-per-person open mic
for writing and music related to peace and justice. Doors open at 5:00pm, a
soup and salad supper will be served at 5:30pm, readings begin at 6:15 and side
dishes will be provided by you, potluck. Sign up in advance at
