Traveling Stanzas
Designing a comprehensive set of digital writing tools, spaces, and apps with an award-winning poetry center.
The Wick Poetry Center has one goal through their flagship project, Traveling Stanzas: to bring poetry to everyday lives. Through encouraging new voices, they facilitate and engage people and their communities in inclusive, international conversations through poetry.
Over the last 6 years, we’ve collaborated with the Traveling Stanzas team to brand, design, and develop a variety of digital writing tools, public artwork installations, traveling exhibits, and more.
