3rd International Poetry Night | April 21, 2015

Thank you to all who joined us to celebrate National Poetry Month with our annual International Poetry Night. National Poetry Month was founded by the Academy of American Poets in April 1996 to appreciate the beauty of poetry. At CLS, we celebrate with an international twist. At our International Poetry Night, poems are recited in their original language, so we can appreciate the sound and the rhythm of the poems as they were written. This year, we saw 26 poems presented in 18 different languages. If you would like to see the translations of the fantastic poems, click on the link below!
