Get on the bus!

What do you hear when you hear the word "home?" Submissions are open now through June 30 for Poetry on Buses with the theme of Writing Home. This 4Culture program celebrates poetry by displaying poems on Metro transit buses as well as online and at an event this fall.

If you live in King County, consider submitting a poem of 50 words or less in English, Spanish, Vietnamese, Somali, or Russian.

Need help? Planning poet Roberto Ascalon will give a free workshop on Tuesday, June 17, (yes, tomorrow) at 6:30 p.m. in Seattle. You could also attend the Russian community workshop on June 18 and/or the Latino community workshop and Fandango on June 21.
