The Why
Our goal is to create a space in our community for people to share their love of poetry.
Collectively share and enjoy poetry with us in Chesterfield County, Virginia.
Join us to write, listen, share, express, heal, emote, grieve, and grow!
We believe in the power of poetry to build community, increase understanding, and share what makes us human.
We want to create a non-judgemental, welcoming and supportive space for aspiring poets of any experience level to share their art.
