Although we were very much looking forward to welcoming you to Poetry in the Woods this weekend, out of an abundance of caution, we are canceling the event.
Recent King County recommendations aimed at reducing the risk of exposure to COVID-19 have suggested avoiding bringing large groups together. Your safety, and the safety of our staff and community at large, are of the utmost importance to us. While it saddens us to have to cancel a weekend of bringing people together – something we are extremely passionate about doing – we know this is the right decision for all.
What’s next?
We’re disappointed not to be seeing you this weekend and hope we’ll see in November instead!
With warm regards,
