Postcards from Mapes Creek on June 8!

Join us on June 8, 2025 from 4-7 PM at Mapes Creek for a community poetry postcard gathering! At the mouth of Mapes Creek, we will gather with a postcard collage table, food and an open mic for reading postcard poems. This is a casual poetry postcard event, so we would appreciate if any participants would be able to donate materials for the collage table, such as old magazines, glue, scissors, empty postcards, etc. Food will be served potluck-style, so bring your favorite dishes and snacks along with a postcard poem or two to read at the open mic!

WHEN: June 8, 2025, 4-7 PM PDT
WHERE: Mapes Creek at Be’er Sheva Park in Rainier Beach
8650 55th Ave S, Seattle, WA 98118

We hope to see you there! We’ll gather at the shelter near the mouth of the creek between the park at the Atlantic City Boat Launch.

Registration for the Poetry Postcard Fest is OPEN NOW. Spread the word to your loved ones!

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.
