Help us keep on giving.

Sponsored by Workhorse, Lexington Poetry Month is an easy to use platform for poets to publish and share their work in an attractive way. The community is supportive and diverse, commenting and encouraging one another throughout June. Money we raise goes to maintaining the cost of the website and publishing the yearly anthology. Our goals are to provide every poet (~150) a copy of the anthology, lower printing costs, and expand opportunities offered during Lexington Poetry Month, such as featured readings and poetry workshops.

Bio for 2022

Amani is a student at the University of Kentucky with a double major in English and History. Her primary focus is literary theory and historical analysis. Creative writing, such as poetry, short stories, playwriting, and personal essays, is a form of escapism for her, as often she is plagued with the ennui of life.
