National Poetry Month quickly approaches

April is National Poetry Month, and #LVPI is working on a number of fun & interactive workshops & events that will be happening between April 1st & May 2nd in the southernmost coastal communities of Delaware. These events will be open to the public; all-ages, all skill-levels.

Here is a sneak peek!
