How do I start a poetry group?

Starting a poetry group can be a rewarding experience! First, decide on the format: will it be in-person or online?

I prefer in-person. What should I do next?

Great choice! Find a suitable location, like a community center or a cozy café. Then, set a date and time for your first meeting.

How do I invite people to join?

You can create flyers, use social media, or ask friends and local writers to spread the word. Consider joining local writing groups to find interested participants.

What activities should we do in the group?

You can have poetry readings, writing prompts, workshops, and discussions about different poets and styles. Keep it engaging!
