Since 2008, LionLike has been at the frontier of Pomona and Inland Empire Poetry; sending National Slam Teams, Running Poetry Programs, Hosting Regional Slams, Artist Community Picnics, and providing additional avenues for LOVE of Poetry Art to permeate the next generation of writers and artists to come.

 

Our Mission

Our Mission is to create a Community of not only Poets but Artists of every Medium to usher in a Renaissance ERA of Art and Thought desperately needed in our region and time. To push the realm of Poetry and Art and to promote unity through individualism.


LionLike MindState is more than a Poetry or Art Collective. LionLike MindState provides hope and inspiration, not just an outlet.
— Judah 1, Founder of LionLike MindState
