Remember the April 1st deadline for youth poets to receive an acknowledgement certificate during the Ferndale Poetry Festival April 20th (See below). Enter your poem(s) by that date to the Ferndale Public Library, Attn: Wendy, by e-mail to windygale02@yahoo.com or by snail mail to 1965 Somerset Street Ferndale. We can't wait to read them
In 1996, the Academy of American Poets established National Poetry Month to promote the love of American Poetry. As part of that celebration, the Friends of Ferndale Library invite local poets, community members and students to share their love of poetry every April. The Friends of the Ferndale Library are dedicated to supporting the Ferndale Public Library and their mission to 'bring the joy of reading and the world of ideas to every resident in an open and enriching environment'.
