April 2025: This National Poetry Month celebrate by showcasing your creative writing talents. And of course, that means Poetry!!!
We are hosting a city-wide (& out) online poetry writing competition: Poetry Madness: A social poetry contest for teens and young adults!
Showcase your amazing talents through poetry with your own chosen topic and get a chance to win some money!
Submissions will take place via Google Forms. Only one submission per poet is allowed. If more than one poem is submitted, the first one will be the one that we use.
Poems should be no more than 225 words.
We advise that you submit your poems by April 1st.
We will be posting one poem a day throughout the month of April. So once we receive 30 poems in category group, submissions in that category group will close!
