Project Poetica is an art endeavor that helps everyday people get offline and engage with art. 

The project is for readers of all levels and provides poetry that is relatable, tangible, and intentionally scarce. You won't find these poems online, but in a mailbox, on a bookshelf, or in your hands. The project rejects instant access and instead asks for intention and open-mindedness. It's never about extracting meaning, but always about feeling. This way of art grants us the opportunity to slow down, reconnect with the world around us, and increase in empathy, self-understanding, and many other ways that can surprise us. 

The flagship service (a poem a month for a year) is not-for-profit and sends handwritten poems to mailboxes each month for only the cost of the service.

The project is run by Robert Dawson, a student of poetry, business, law, and faith. It's also richly supported by his brilliant wife, Ashley, and the many amazing readers who continue to rally behind the cause.

(An Ars Poetica is a poetic form in which the poem itself examines "the art of poetry", or the authors philosophy thereof. Project Poetica, then, can be considered, as a whole, my own Ars Poetica.)
