You might have already noticed the poems popping up around Pittsboro, because the poetry stroll is in full swing! We received an unexpectedly large number of submissions sent in by members of our community, so they're being displayed not only in the windows of local businesses, but also in the Chatham County Government Annex building at 12 East Street, on the bulletin board along Central Carolina Community College's walking trail, and throughout the library. Please note that the initial assignment of poem locations was random.


Below is a list of all participants and poem locations. We hope you'll take a moment sometime during the rest of the month to read the poetry of a family member, friend, acquaintance, or total stranger as you go about your day in Pittsboro. Happy National Poetry Month!
