Celebrating National Poetry Month April 2021 - Episode 1

Something remarkable happens when you support creative people. New ideas are born and positive changes in our neighborhoods can happen. The Downriver Council for the Arts creates regional partnerships with other cultural organizations, schools and service clubs to promote artistic, cultural and special events throughout Southeast Michigan. These organizations have joined the Downriver Council for the Arts to form a network of cultural inspiration. Let’s celebrate our collective story!

A Collaboration with the Downriver Council for the Arts and the Downriver Poets & Playwrights

Every year in April the Downriver Poets & Playwrights host a live poetry event with their members. It’s free to the public and held in the auditorium at the Arts Center. Due to the pandemic, the events were cancelled in 2020 and 2021. We came up with this idea to share their creative work safely.

Special thanks to Richard Campbell, the Downriver Poets & Playwrights and the DCA artists for making this gift possible!
