Description: It was June 2004 when a community of literary enthusiasts brought together by poetry was formed. The group, since then called Pinoypoets, traces its roots to its local poetry mailing list, which was home to Pinoypoets’ correspondences. The group has then grown beyond the mailing list and has developed to a more formal organization. Pinoypoets is now a non-stock, non-profit corporation duly registered with the SEC. Pinoypoets hopes to provide a creative forum for poets and poetry enthusiasts. The group holds monthly critique sessions where members may present their poems for discussion. These regular meetings also allow members to study and exchange views about the works of other poets, and pieces from the vast literature on poetry. In its efforts to promote poetry, the group also organizes workshops and special lectures which are always open to anyone interested — members and non-members alike.
