All Pittsburghers are Poets
ALLEGHENY COUNTY POET LAUREATE PROGRAM
All Pittsburghers are Poets is a new program of City of Asylum that will designate Poet Laureates in several categories, including the first-ever Official Poet Laureate of Allegheny County. We will soon be accepting applications for the following awards:
- Youth Poet Laureate
- Emerging Poet Laureate
- American Sign Language Poet Laureate
- Official Poet Laureate of Allegheny County
All Pittsburghers are Poets will celebrate poets of all ages and abilities through readings by the Laureates and finalists in diverse venues throughout the county.
We are excited to continue making Pittsburgh a home for poetry!
