SUMMARY:2024 ukiaHaiku Festival - Submission Deadline
DESCRIPTION:As the New Year approaches\, we hope you might find time to enter the 22nd ukiaHaiku Festival contest. Residents of Mendocino\, Lake\, Sonoma\, and Humboldt counties\, from kindergarten age through adult\, can enter haiku in ten different categories (two for Spanish). There is also one category open to planet Earth\, the Jane Reichhold International Award. Writing haiku\, one of the simplest and most accessible forms of poetry\, gives you a chance to capture and reflect upon being present in a special moment of experience. \n\nThere will be a celebration of winning haiku on April 28th\, 2024 at the Civic Center Council Chambers where we invite winners to attend and read their haiku. Winners will receive awards\, including gift certificates to local bookstores. We will also produce a publication of the winning haiku. \n\n\nIn recognition that the Pomo People are the original inhabitants of Mendocino County and that the name Ukiah itself is from a Pomo language\, this year\, we are making an open call to our Pomo neighbors to share haiku that are in Pomo languages or express a Pomo perspective. (These can be written in English\, Spanish and Pomo Languages\, with English translations.) \n\n\nHaiku submissions can be made on our website: www.ukiahaiku.org \n\n\nThe website also has information on writing haiku including advice from the late Jane Reichhold (a haiku scholar)\, in her videoed lesson for local teachers (see “resources” at the bottom of the website page). These resources are intended to help show what our judges are looking for in a haiku. \n\n\nIf you have any questions\, please contact Colter Jacobsen at Ukiahaikufestival@gmail.com or 415-832-0978. \nIf you prefer to submit haiku via snail mail\, there are entry forms at the Mendocino County Library in Ukiah. Or you can print a pdf from our website and send it to: \n\n\nukiaHaiku Festival\nMendocino County Library\n105 N Main St\nUkiah\, CA 95482 \n\n\nBoth online and snail mail submissions must be postmarked by February 8th. \n\n\nVisit the website for more information and to read more winning haiku from previous festivals. \nI hope you will participate with entries and come join the celebration! \n\n\nSincerely\,\nMelissa Eleftherion Carr\nUkiah Poet Laureate Emeritus 2021-2023 \n\n\nThe ukiaHaiku Festival Youth Outreach was awarded a grant by the California Humanities\, a non-profit partner of the National Endowment for the Humanities and sponsored by North Coast Opportunities. \n\ninstagram: @ukiahaikufestival

SUMMARY:Nominations Close for Poet Laureate of Mendocino County
DESCRIPTION:Step Forward to Nominate or Be the First Poet Laureate of Mendocino County \nThe Mendocino County Poet Laureate Committee is currently seeking nominations for the first Poet Laureate of Mendocino County. The deadline for nominations is February 29th. Nominees will need to submit applications in March and be interviewed in April. This is an official honorary position in which the Poet Laureate will serve for a term of 2 years. The Poet Laureate would be expected to appear at some public functions\, and hopefully engage with not only the poetry community but the broader literary\, Arts\, political\, and educational communities. How the Poet Laureate will do this will be defined by that person’s own creative process. For more information on how to apply or nominate for this position go to http://mendocinopoetlaureate.mymcn.org. (If you do not have access to the internet you can send snail mail to: Mendocino County Poet Laureate Program\, P.O. Box 67\, Willits\, CA\, 95490.) Anyone living in Mendocino County can nominate a potential Poet Laureate and a poet can nominate herself or himself. Some of you may not know that we already have a Youth Poet Laureate in Mendocino County. The Poet Laureate Committee believes that Mendocino County also deserves to have an adult Poet Laureate and that the establishment of this position will help enhance the art of poetry making here and inspire all of our citizens about the value and joy of creative literary expression.
