Our Big Purpose
PBI aims to create a dedicated space for new and established Poets, Spoken Word & Live Literature Artists internationally, to share the common experience of becoming and being a poet.
We hold this space for you who are at a transitional phase of your creative lives or careers in a way that enables & empowers, invigorates & inspires.
Who We Are
The focus is to weave together the threads of a supportive community, to grow & learn from each other, upgrading our poetry game, rebooting our writing practice, and/or develop new habits that cultivate confidence & a sense of possibility.
Develop Your Writing & Creative Practice
We offer this space for poets to explore the depth and breadth of the writing and performance process so that you can feel refreshed, enabled, invigorated and newly inspired, supported by other poets who understand.
What We Do Here
In the Poets Built It Online Community we host workshops and specialist courses, masterclasses, and live stream events and other literature industry activities that enable you and empower you for the life of a poet.
In Poets Built It we:
1) deep dive into craft,
2) encourage experimentation,
3) host honest conversations around
the business of poetry.
As a global collective, we share our skills and experiences to learn from each other, as well as in inspire ourselves.
We program, create and deliver poetry workshops and masterclasses to learn from each other's diverse experiences.
