World Poetry Day 2024!

Dear fellow Cities of Literature, dear friends,

We are thrilled to send you the open call for World Poetry Day 2024!

As most of you know, the WPD celebration is one of our flagship classic projects partnering many Cities of Literature, proposed and coordinated by Granada since 2017.

As in previous editions, you will soon receive the joint poster designed by Granada City of Literature. We encourage you to utilize it at your best convenience, as it serves as a shared and significant link between the cities of literature, especially during these challenging times. Participating in this international poetry project is an excellent opportunity to showcase the unity and vitality of our sub-network to the world.

Please, find enclosed our Project Proposal Form. We would suggest as a first deadline to submit your 2024 WPD proposals March 1st.

Wishing you the best from Granada!
