Mayo County Council Arts Office, Library Service, and Artsquad are celebrating All Ireland Poetry Day which takes place Thursday October 4.
Mayo Artsquad members are using their creative abilities to design a poetry tree. They are asking for submissions of inspiring poetry to dress the tree.
The poetry submissions can be an original poem or a favourite existing poem, the only requirement is that the poem has inspired you in some way.
Poems and the reason why they are inspiring, should be marked Poetry Tree and can be handed in/posted/e-mailed to any Mayo Library or sent to Mayo County Council Arts Office, , Mayo County Council, Áras an Chontae, The Mall, Castlebar, by Friday September 21.
