About the event

Bring your pad and your pen and a heart spelled open. A free poetry workshop w/ Spoken Word legend Buddy Wakefield. This event is made possible by San Juan County through its Lodging Tax Advisory Committee (LTAC) and the Tulalip Tribes Charitable Contributions Fund.


Buddy Wakefield is an interdimensional traveler on the waves of wonder and meaning. A World Poetry Champion turned Portugal expat, Buddy Wakefield will make you remember the undeniable beauty and profound purpose rooted in your existence. He’s like Yoda if Yoda looked more like Bruce Willis and only spoke backwards sometimes. Buddy can summon serendipity from uncertainty and weave awe into your aura. Lately, he’s been on tour with Tig Notaro (just sayin’). He’s a meteorite that’s only here to give you what is good because he doesn’t register the alternative. If you’ve been looking for why you’re here, Buddy’s got answers. Come get some.


Please arrive…
