Celebrate National Poetry Month

Poetry will come to life in April with events that celebrate the creative and renewal aspect of books, time and spring.

Poetry will come to life in Victoria during National Poetry Month in April with events that celebrate the creative and renewal aspect of books, time and spring.

Throughout the month, Victoria’s poet laureate Yvonne Blomer and youth poet laureate Maita Cienska invite the community to get creative and reacquainted with their book collections by tweeting their best “book spine” poems using the hashtag #yyjpoetry.
