The Cascadia Poetics Lab is a partner in the Engage, Educate and Discover at Mapes Creek project, spearheaded by Fish Ecologist Ashley Townes and neighborhood activist Shannon Waits, both members of the Rainier Beach Link2Lake committee. This project is funded through the King County Flood Control District’s WRIA 8 Cooperative Watershed Management Grants. We see this project as completely aligned with the mission of the Cascadia Poetics Lab: “Empowering people to practice poetry & deepen connections to place, self & the present moment. We believe that poetry is the nexus at which self-knowledge, bioregionalism and expansive creativity converge. Cascadia Poetics Lab is a vibrant community whose workshops, festivals, and opportunities for connection can open the door to transformative experiences.”

Land acknowledgement is one way to resist erasure of Indigenous histories as well as to honor tribes and the land itself.
