It's Whatcom Peace Poetry Contest time for youth ages 4 - 18! Submit your entries by May 29, 2026.We are overjoyed to be partnering once again with Village Books for our annual Youth Peace Poetry Contest! This is one of our favorite times of year when we invite youth ages 4 to 18, living in Whatcom County to reflect on peace and share their creativity and insights. Over the years, we have seen peace represented in a wide variety of ways, such as respect, listening, friendship, conflict resolution, hopes and dreams for the future, celebrating peaceful moments, and so much more.
Submissions can be in the form of poetry, lyrics, flash fiction, or any form of written word. Winners will be invited to share their poetry at our annual Peace Builder Awards and ALL participants will receive an invitation to share their work at the Youth Peace Poetry reading at Village Books this coming Fall. We are accepting submissions now through Friday, May 29th. Please share this with friends, family, youth, educators, and anyone who might be interested!
