“Poetry is the rhythmical creation of beauty in words.” ~Edgar Allan Poe

The Poetry Readings and Nature Poetry Festival are currently cancelled due to renovations taking place at Danada House through Spring of 2025.

In an effort to introduce more cultural activities to the Danada House agenda, the Nature Poetry Festival was introduced in 1993. Eight semi-finalists in each of three age divisions were chosen from the many written poems that were submitted. Winners were selected after readings which took place at Danada House. In 1995 the Festival was held as part of the Earth Day Celebration.

In the future we hope to schedule another Nature Poetry Festival.

If you are interested in becoming a poet at a Nature Poetry Festival with Friends of Danada in the future, please email us at info@danadahouse.com and place POETRY in the subject line.
