Throughout the academic year, Chicago Poetry Center Poets in Residence have taught poetry in over 40 virtual classrooms across 10 schools. To close out the 2020-21 In-School Residencies, CPC celebrates its students with the annual All Schools Reading.
Please join us on Wednesday, May 26th at 6pm (Central Time) for a celebratory reading by student poets from CPC residencies. We can’t wait to showcase the creative powerful poems by Chicago Poetry Center students. Click the image below or follow this link https://youtu.be/u4JGoc_e9oA to access the live stream.

Introducing: New Pop-Up Assembly Poets
The popularity of our Virtual Pop-Up Assemblies means we’ve had the pleasure of welcoming three new poets to our performance team. We’re excited to bring Joshua Nguyen, Chanell Ruth, and Noel Quiñones to virtual classrooms and stages across the Chicagoland area. Learn more about them by reading their bios on our Poets in Residence page.
