Support Poetry Palooza!

Poetry Palooza!_final3.jpg

Your support is essential in establishing this celebration of poetry and poets as the first in a series of highly anticipated annual events. With your help, you will enrich the climate of arts and culture in Central Iowa. You will demonstrate the importance of humanities in the human experience. And, you will very likely touch the life trajectory of a young poet - on stage or in the audience.

​

Your generous support of Poetry Palooza will provide in-school performances and related student materials to encourage emerging poets to develop and demonstrate their talent.

​

Gifts will help cover the expenses of bringing Poets Laureate to our community. You will be supporting event publicity to celebrate Greater Des Moines' cultural atmosphere and commitment to the arts and humanities through outstanding fanfare, social media, and public participation.

 

Your contribution to Poetry Palooza will enable the printing of programs, awarding of trophies, and potential youth scholarships. You will help make Poetry Palooza an inclusive, educational, and entertaining experience for a diverse audience regardless of personal financial limitations.
