As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, the Whatcom Poetry Series funds the following community programs:
We're here for poetry...and for you!
We're dedicated to ensuring that poetry plays a central role in fostering community, enlivening our public spaces, and engaging our collective imagination.
Based in Bellingham, Washington, we serve poets, poetry-lovers, and the poetry-curious!
The Sue C. Boynton Contest, an all-ages competition that showcases winning poems on busses, downtown placards, in locally-illustrated anthologies, and at an annual awards reading.
A Whatcom County poetry group that organizes events throughout the year, culminating in a three day festival every November.
