Oak Creek Public Library Description
Celebrate National Poetry Month by participating in OCPL's annual Poetry Contest! There are three age categories:
Middle School (ages 11-13)
High School (ages 14-18)
Adult (18+)
Poetry must be submitted in-person at the library's Children's or Adult Service Desks during the month of April. Entries will be judged by members of the community. Prizes are awarded for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places for each category, as well as a chance to be published in the Oak Creek Current magazine and on OCPL's website. Winners will be announced at the Poetry Open Mic Night on May 16, 2025 and be invited to read their poems aloud if they would like.
