The Poetry Project is so excited to welcome 2022 with you all!

From 11 am to midnight on Saturday, January 1, 2022 we’ll be presenting video contributions from over 160+ poets, performers, dancers, and musicians from all over the world!

In addition to being a beloved community event where we have gathered together to set intentions and celebrate creativity for almost fifty years, The Marathon has historically been our most important fundraiser of the year. Ticket revenue sustains our calendar of events, learning programs, and publications presented throughout the year, all of which are important paid opportunities for about 500 poets, artists, writers, performers, and teachers annually.

We're thrilled to be able to offer this event once again as a free continuous livestream!
