Description:

Split This Rock is launching online poetry database, an exciting new resource filled with poetry of provocation & witness. Find the perfect poem for any occasion! Locate a poet to invite to an upcoming event! Filled with poems from our Poem of the Week series, from the winners of our annual poetry contests, from youth poets, and more, the database will be searchable by social justice themes, author’s identity, state, and geographic region. Join us on Thursday, June 25 for a Poetry Database Launch Party featuring DJ Phenomejon, poetry readings and performances, a demonstration of the database, and a silent auction. Please come celebrate with us! For more information, email info@splitthisrock.org or call 202-787-5210.
