A Toast to Mom: Poems & Pints
Celebrate Mom at Structures Brewing (Old Town) on Sunday, May 10th from 12pm–3pm! Bring the kids and treat her to an afternoon of good food and brews, laid-back Bellingham vibes, and something truly special: poetry composed just for her by celebrated local poets with their trusty typewriters.
Listen to live music, paint a rock for Mom’s garden, and enter our raffle to win a beautiful garden poetry pole.
Open to the public, this fundraiser for the Salish Sea Poetry Festival is an ode to all those with a mothering soul. The Salish Sea Poetry Festival brings poetry to the people through poetry crawls, public art, theatrical collaborations, and streetcorner readings.
A program under the nonprofit Whatcom Poetry Series, the festival has events year-round and culminates in a celebration of poetry throughout Whatcom County the second weekend of every November. Keeping the majority of these events free and open to the public is our mission– hence the fundraiser!
