In celebration of National Poetry Month in April 2016 and the City of Vaughan’s 25th Anniversary, Vaughan Public Libraries (VPL) is creating a Vaughan Poetry Map as a platform for all local poets to share and showcase their poems about Vaughan.

The Vaughan Poetry Map will be an interactive map that celebrates Vaughan’s culture, heritage, and geographical beauty through poems and images. The map will link poems onto the map based on the locations mentioned in the poems.

VPL is currently inviting all poets and poetry lovers to submit poems about general or specific locations in Vaughan. All entries should be submitted by March 11, 2016. For detailed information on submission guidelines and to enter your submission please visit: http://www.vaughanpl.info/poetry_map_entry.

Looking forward to your entries!
