Local Poetry

Did you know April is Poetry Month? If you are a Bellingham poet or poetry fan, you may have an idea of what the local poetry scene is like. But it’s much more rambunctious and vibrant than you can even imagine. And if you’re new to the scene, this is event is a must! “Local Poetry” will feature brief presentations and readings by twelve-plus local poets and project leaders, who will share information about local poetry reading series, venues, publications, publishers, conferences and more! Local Poetry will be held in Special Collections, (Wilson Library 6th Floor) and is being offered as part of the Western Libraries Heritage Resources Distinguished Speakers programs.
