Poetry Street Project

The Poetry Street Project was created to gather the poetry, essays, stories, photos, and artwork of homeless people in Davenport, Iowa.

The idea arose out of a graduate school project for a course on public writing, and is designed to give a voice and a place for creative expression for those who are often invisible and unheard in our culture.

The project has only one ambition--to allow individuals who are now or who have been homeless to express their creativity, finding hope in the process.
