We are so glad to be able to fund National Poetry Month readings all across the country, thanks to the generous support of Canada Council for the Arts.

Today, we’re sharing a look at 20 of the events we’re funding this #NPM18; maybe there’s one taking place in a city near you! Have you always wondered what a League-funded event looks like? Browse through these and you’ll see: there’s no one way to host a poetry reading. From coast-to-coast, these events will give you a pretty picture of the country’s poetry-goings-on that we’re proud to support.
