Join Master Poet, David Bush, and learn the art of creating a simple, but memorable, poem. Learn the history of Poem in your Pocket Day and walk away with your very own creation!
Poem in Your Pocket Day was initiated in April 2002 by the Office of the Mayor in New York City, in partnership with the city's Departments of Cultural Affairs and Education. In 2008, the Academy of American Poets took the initiative to all 50 states, encouraging individuals around the country to participate. In 2016, the League of Canadian Poets extended Poem in Your Pocket Day to Canada.
