In honor of National Poetry Month, Jackson Parish Library hosted their very first Poetry-Walk at the Jonesboro Branch. Quitman High School students of Ms. Holly Hampton’s class participated by writing many forms of poetry that were submitted for display during the month of April.

A reception was held in their honor on April 18th and many students were brave enough to read aloud their submissions. To view their work and to enjoy the Poetry Walk, visit the Jonesboro Branch located at 614 South Polk Avenue.

Don’t forget to scan the LSU Ag QR Code at the end of the Poetry Walk to receive a FREE copy of The Remarkable Story of George Moses Horton Poet by Author, Don Tate.
