The Bradford Public Library is gearing up for our 9th Annual Bradford Poem Town Celebration! This town-wide event displays poetry on Bradford's local storefronts as a way to celebrate National Poetry Month in April. We are promoting poetry that is accessible to the community hoping to inspire new readers and writers of poetry. We invite poets of all ages to submit their poems for display! Please send submissions to: poemtown@bradfordvtlibrary.org. This years' deadline for submission is Friday, March 15. All original poetry will be professionally formatted and printed for display on April 1.
