Poem in Your Pocket Day serves as a beautiful opportunity to allow the healing power of poetry to spill over into our everyday lives. It allows us to share our favorite poems with people who may otherwise not receive much exposure to poetry. It also reminds us to have a deeper appreciation for the impact that poetry has had on our lives!

Between 12:00 pm and 1:00 pm, you can join us for our Poetry in the Park event where you can enjoy live poetry readings from local poets, authors, artists, and more, all emceed by the one and only LoveReigns! Find more information here.

Special thanks to James Weldon Johnson Park for partnering with us for this event.

Thank you to the Cultural Council of Greater Jacksonville, the City of Jacksonville, the Poetry Foundation, and the Florida Department of State Division of
Arts and Culture for helping sponsor this event.
