EXTENDED DEADLINE: 22nd Annual PCCA Awards for Poetic Excellence

While many of are home bound and practicing social distancing to fight the spread of COVID-19, now is the time for creating! So, we’ve extended our Poetic Excellence Awards deadline to Tuesday, March 31, which is our last planned day to be closed to the public.

During this stressful time, self care is important. Embracing the arts, and writing poetry in particular, is great for relieving stress and channeling emotions into a therapeutic, enriching outlet. Use this awards deadline as motivation to put your thoughts to poetic words and as a fun and creative goal to work toward.
