About Poetry Month
National Poetry Month was launched by the Academy of American Poets in April 1996 to celebrate poets' integral role in our culture and that poetry matters.
Throughout April, celebrate Poetry Month at your libraries with fun take-home kits, educational programs, and resources to help you craft your next poem.

Have you always wanted to explore creative writing but never had the chance? Are you looking for a supportive community of writers with whom you can share your work?
Visit us for a little "caffeination", conversation and education! At this come-and-go event you can enjoy a cup of tea or coffee with friends, and we'll be there to answer questions about library services and events. There will also be a selection of new materials for you to peruse and check out.
Join us for Community and Coffee. We will have free coffee, puzzles, and conversation topics for the community.
This meeting will have some special activities related to National Poetry Month!
Join us at the Downtown Library as we celebrate Poetry Month with a reading by local poets! We have invited poets from the Oklahoma City area to come together and showcase their talents for an afternoon poetry reading.
