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 2024

Alvera is a mother, a teacher, a cashier, a friend, a reluctant dog owner and a sister, but most importantly a beautifully flawed human trying to get through and grow through this thing called life.

Reason for signing up:

I enjoy the opportunity and encouragement to be creative in community.
