Today is the one year anniversary of ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
poetree's founding manifesto; October 10th, which falls on Wednesday, is the community's official birthday. A great deal can happen in the span of one year: 320 posts, 1,885 comments, and a steadily increasing community (currently at 66 official members, with 89+ subscribing). We have had Hosts and Guest Hosts the likes of poets Luisa A. Igloria, Rabbi Rachel Barenblat, and David Kopaska-Merkel, among others both amateur and professional, as well as audio performers, artists, translators, and poetry enthusiasts with a diverse range of tastes and backgrounds.
poetree is a lively, ever-evolving community that pushes the boundaries of what poetry and poetry discussion can be. This week, the community admins, ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)

Tuesday: Origins (jjhunter)
Thursday: Evolution of the Sunday Picnic (alee_grrl)
[Rescheduled]: Rooted In Story: the Art and Metaphor of POETREE (jjhunter)
Friday: Climbing the Poet's Tree: Using Challenges to build community (alee_grrl)
Saturday: Community Favorites (open discussion facilitated by both admins)
