Poetry at TCPL

Celebrate Poem in Your Pocket Day with TCPL on April 27th! This year, we received 80 poems from local poets, all centered on the theme of unity, and we will be handing out pocket-sized poetry cards at the library and on the Commons. You can also find our poetry cards available at local businesses, organizations, and bookstores, and they will be shared online on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. Check out this year's poetry collection here!
We are also hosting a virtual Spring Writes poetry event, the Poetry and Prose Open Mic, on May 4th. Visit that page for more details and to register.
If you have questions, please email poetry@tcpl.org.
