Voices of Tacoma: A Gathering of Poets is an anthology of poetry of, about, or inspired by Tacoma, Washington. Partly funded by the Tacoma Artists Initiative Program, Voices of Tacoma includes the work of over eighty poets from all across the City and beyond.

Focused on giving voice to the diversity of our community, the anthology includes poets of all ages and from all walks of life. Including the work of former Tacoma Poet Laureates, school teachers, well-known poets, first-time-published poets, and illustrated by the artwork of Tacoma artist Mauricio Robalino, Voices of Tacoma gives a snapshot of the Pacific Northwest culture in all its beauty and grit.

Voices of Tacoma: A Gathering of Poets is a project that aims to engage and uplift diverse poetic voices through accessible community programming and the publication of a poetry anthology. Free monthly gatherings and workshops nurtured artistic connection and expression. While centered in Tacoma, we welcomed participation from poets anywhere seeking to share work inspired by the City of Destiny. Our vision is an inclusive literary community that celebrates the range of voices and experiences within the South Sound. Join us as we platform historically underrepresented voices and bring people together through inspirational poetry events and publications.
