Welcome to Phantom Billstickers National Poetry Day, 23 August 2019. Registrations are open.
Returning 2018 organisers: Last year was huge – let’s do it again!
To those returning after a break: Welcome back.
To the newcomers: Phantom Billstickers National Poetry Day is an annual celebration of the power of poetry – in all its manifestations. Open to all ages, it is a chance to make poetry accessible, inclusive, and to showcase how extraordinary it can be. Events, activities or competitions can be large or small, from handing out free poems, making a Poet-Tree, or chalking on pavements, to larger-scale events such as workshops, readings with guest poets and book launches. At every level, Phantom Billstickers National Poetry Day is a chance to make poetry soar.
Registrations and applications for seed-funding remain open until 5pm, Wednesday 22 May 2019.
