National Poetry Month Poster Contest 19-20

JaQuan Allen (grade 11) was announced yesterday as one of ten finalists in the NationalPoetryMonthPosterContest put on by the Academy of American Poets! He is in the running for $500, an additional $500 gift certificate to Blick Art Materials. If he does win his poster would be printed and put into circulation to libraries, schools, and bookstores across the country!

Quoted from Poetry.org:

In the fall of 2019, the Academy of American Poets, the originator and organizer of National Poetry Month, invited students in grades 9 through 12 to enter artwork to be considered for the official April 2020 National Poetry Month poster. The 2020 poster, which is sent to 100,000 libraries, schools, bookstores, and community centers nationwide and made available by download on Poets.org, will feature a high school student's winning artwork.
