Celebrate Poem in Your Pocket Day on April 18th by selecting a poem, carrying it with you, and sharing it with a friend, family member, colleague, or stranger.
This year, we’re thrilled to announce that we received a WiLS Ideas to Action grant to expand our Poem in Your Pocket Day programming beyond our walls to the Central Wisconsin region.
Join the UWSP Libraries and our community partners (list on right) for this celebration! Don’t have a poem? No problem! We’ve got you covered with poems available at our libraries and community partners (and digital poems on this guide).
This celebration of poetry is also a great way to explore our vast collections of poetry at the UWSP Libraries, as well as any local or college/university library.
Poem in Your Pocket Day is an official activity created by the American Academy of Poets for National Poetry Month.
Make April 18th an extra special day for someone (and for you) by sharing a poem! It’s a great way to connect, engage, and inspire.
