Poetry Corners Live at BIMA
Join us on Saturday, May 6th for an evening of captivating poetry live readings with Poetry Corners. Hear the words of local poets come to life as they share their work in an intimate setting at the Bainbridge Island Museum of Art. Since 1999, the Poetry Corners annual competition has showcased original poems by local poets. Selections from the poetry competition are exhibited in the windows of businesses and community spaces around Bainbridge Island to be enjoyed by patrons and passers-by throughout National Poetry Month.
Poetry Corners Exhibit
Poetry Corners, a local poetry movement first established by an enthusiastic group of local creatives in 1999, continues its long-running tradition of posting local poems throughout the windows of downtown Bainbridge Island.
Beginning in April, Poetry Corners will present its annual poetry exhibition featuring the jury-selected poetry of local poets.
The public poetry exhibit will be displayed from April 1st through April 30th in celebration of National Poetry Month, which was created by the American Academy of Poets. “The Academy of American Poets established National Poetry Month in 1996. Along the way we enlisted a variety of government agencies and officials, educational leaders, publishers, sponsors, poets, and arts organizations to help. National Poetry Month is a registered trademark of the Academy of American Poets.
