As of this morning Group 15 is not quite full and final lists will go out to all groups that are full (1-14) as the fest begins on Tuesday July 4. We’ll close registration when the last group has filled up.
Notes on the last Poetry Postcard Activation for 2026 at Pritchard Beach in Seattle.
Postcarding and DaySonging (A Workshop). In this session it will be a presentation of how the postcard fest developed, how the daysong developed, how I prepare for the fest and how participants attending prepare for the fest, as well as how to prepare for a successful daysong. The similarities of the daysong to serial poetry could be discussed, as well as the effort to put one’s self into the open, which has benefits in one’s own life.
Part of the Cascadia 2050 mission is: to inspire artists and poets of the next generation to consider bioregionalism and intuitive poetic approach as a way to foster a more just and sustainable Cascadia by 2050. To this end, one of our goals is to interview people who help us spread awareness by having practices in their lives that reflect these values. This interview with Postcard Poet Laura Gamache, a Seattle who has published poetry in the usual places, such as chapbooks, journals and anthologies, and also unusual places, such as buses, is the first of the series.
How can I share my poem in the open Mic in group 15 on July 4th? What time?
Absolutely wonderful. Many thanks!
I think that event was in 2022.
Paul and All,
Thank you for this short version, I was out of town for the opening! I am really excited for my 3rd year of Popo fest, to create love and words and art in post card form, for all the great poets in my group! And even more, I’m excited to open my mailbox to all those delicious, exotic, fabulous pieces from you…. YAY!!!!!!!
