The Camden Public Library Poets’ Corner group was started in 2026 by librarian and poet Nora Curry with the support of the long-running Rockport and Thomaston Poets’ Corner groups.
In our Poets’ Corner meetings, each poet usually brings copies of the poem or poems they plan to read so they can hand them out to the other poets attending the meeting. read more
During National Poetry Month (April) and at other times, the Poets’ Corner group and Camden Public Library host special events, inviting poets from the Midcoast to come share their work and hear the poetry of others in a much loved 1st floor setting at Camden Public Library.
If you would like to help us thank the folks at Camden Public Library for giving us a home and hosting our special events, please consider making a donation to Camden Public Library on their donation page. Thank you.
This is the third Midcoast Maine Poets’ Corner group. The first Poets’ Corner group was started in 2012 at the Rockport Public Library by poets Jim Ostheimer and George S. Chappell, and at the end of 2022 another Public Library Poets’ Corner was started in Thomaston.
There is also another organization in the Midcoast area with a name like ours. The Poets Corner was created in 2020 to focus on poetry and short prose special events and education.
