The Poetry Forum/RHINO Poetry is a non-profit literary organization, primarily devoted to the publication of<a href="http://rhinopoetry.org/the-journal/"> RHINO Poetry</a>, an annual high-quality print journal featuring well-crafted, diverse poetry, flash fiction, and translations. <a href="http://rhinopoetry.org/the-journal/">RHINO Poetry</a> occupies a niche somewhere between academia and the emerging poetry scene – devoted to creative work that tells stories, provokes thought, and pushes the boundaries in form and feeling – while connecting with our readers and audience. RHINO Poetry is the leader of the local poetry scene in Evanston-The Evanston Public Library was home to RHINO’s origins as a free community poetry workshop from the 1970s to 2020- and also a leader in the Chicago area, the Midwest region, nationally, and internationally.

<em>Part of Home: Evanston, an exploration of what it means to make a home, and feel at home, in Evanston.</em>
