Poetry in Public 2013

Published: Aug. 29, 2013, 10 a.m.

Poetry in Public celebrates Iowa City's rich literary tradition and local writing talent by displaying poems by writers of all ages in City buses, downtown kiosks, Iowa City Recreation buildings and other public facilities from April (National Poetry Month) through the fall. We invited this year's poets into our studio to read their poems to make this program. Iowa City is internationally recognized by UNESCO as a City of Literature. You can find more about the Poetry in Public program on the City's website.
