Who are the poets?
Those who make with words
What is Phoenixville?
A town unafraid to change itself
Where are the poets of Phoenixville?
Alongside one another

Got a poetry workshop? Started a reading series? Hosting a study group? We’re happy to share it here!

Want to be on our website and Instagram? APPLY HERE!
This year, we want to build our website and Instagram pages more. So, we are now opening the spotlight to YOU! We created a Google Form which allows you to upload a headshot, bio, and one poem to feature- as well as any events or links you may want included. We will both create a landing page on our website and feature you on our Instagram to help promote your work and add some more names to the Poets of Phoenixville group. We are asking for a suggested donation of $20, which can be paid via Venmo (@poetvincent) or cash at Poetry Night, and this will help us cover the expense of running the website, and allow for us to start saving up for supplies for our next idea…a printed zine!
PLEASE NOTE:
WE WILL BE ACCEPTING & UPDATING TWICE A YEAR.
If you are interested, please email PoetsofPhoenixville@gmail.com.
