What we’re about
Calling all poetry people!
North Florida Poetry Hub is hosted by the charity https://www.hopeathand.org/ and is sponsored by the Florida Division of Cultural Affairs, the Cultural Council of Greater Jacksonville, the City of Jacksonville, the Community Foundation, the Cummer Family Foundation, the Delores Barr Weaver Fund and the Jacksonville Jaguars Foundation.
Hope at Hand offers different ways to explore poetry. Hope at Hand's community mission is to provide poetry lessons for at-risk youth, but our MeetUps are for anyone in North Florida who has a love of words.
