Welcome to our Website!
Use the menu above to explore, or if you’re unsure where to go first, here are some good places to start:
- To see information about upcoming NCPS meetings: Go to NCPS Events. You can also do this through the menu above, by clicking on the events link under ‘Poetry’.
- To find out about the NCPS poetry contests and awards: Go to Contests and Awards. This is also found in ‘Poetry’.
- If you’d like to be a member of the NCPS, go to the Membership page and print our membership form. Membership information, as well as history and current NCPS info, is found under ‘About’.
- Local and recurring events like open mic nights can be found in our Local Events, under the ‘Local’ menu.
- If you aren’t getting the online newsletter Emuse sent to your email, you should sign up here (anyone can get the Emuse newsletter, members and non-members). The newsletter is full of new events and announcements for the poetry community in North Carolina.
If you have any questions or comments about the site, feel free to email our webmaster Cari Grindem-Corbett at cari@inawildflower.com. If you’d like to visit the old version of the NCPS website, you can still find it at http://www.ncpoetrysociety.org/oldsite, but the information there will no longer be updated.


Thank you! Very nice! I appreciate your efforts!
The new website looks so good! And a good expansion too!
…poetry is and always has been a wonderful tool of communication…tweets are not new…facebook pages are not new…poets and writers have communicated in snippets, verses, lines, stories, sonnets, and plays for centuries…thanks NCPS for being a part of that for almost a century…you rock…
