15
years of Give Miami Day bringing our city together.

When Miamians give—even a little—those gifts create a ripple effect that helps local nonprofits sustain meaningful work in our community.

Why poetry matters

We turn blank pages into belonging.

Writing gives us a way to explore our experiences, find our voice, and understand one another. But a strong literary community doesn't happen by accident. It needs spaces where people can show up and create together.

Miami Poetry Club provides inclusive, accessible poetry education and events for new writers, established poets, and everyone in between. Here, people aren't only learning to write—they're finding a place to connect.

Writing, sharing, and making space for each other.
Consistent. Welcoming. No-cost.

Three ways to find
your voice every month.

Two monthly writing workshops and one monthly open mic create opportunities for Miamians to grow, gather, and be heard.
