Teen librarian Dawn Abron has curated a
poetry-themed Pinterest board filled with ideas for programming, displays, and more for National Poetry Month in April. The board includes more than 60 pins divided into multiple sections, including books in verse, titles with teen poets, program ideas, websites, and displays. Some of Abron’s favorite ideas include
Hot Pepper Shakespeare. When her library held a short program a couple of years ago, attendees really enjoyed the challenge of trying to get through a sonnet after eating a jalapeño. Also, for those looking to do something artsy, easy, and cheap,
painting a poem on a canvas, is a no-brainer. Students and patrons can use their favorite song lyrics if they don't want to do poetry.
For these ideas and more, visit the
National Poetry Month board. Feel free to pin more suggestions!
