Celebrate Poetry Month with a reprise of the library's annual Favorite Poem Night.  Takoma Park Poet Laureate Taylor Johnson will be in attendance.

Following up on the children's and teens poetry program on Saturday, April 20 - as Taylor Swift releases her new recording The Tortured Poets Department - the library wants to encourage participants this year, especially, to consider song lyrics as they decide which poem they'd like to read to the group.  There will, as always be refreshments.

Participants should email their name, phone number, and the name of the poem and poet, tortured or not, that the have selected, to Jill Raymond at: jillr@takomaparkmd.gov by April 21. Poems must be published and cannot be the reader's own. 

All ages are welcome! Folks are invited to read or just listen!
