- Visit the American Poetry Museum. Located in Washington, D.C, this building was founded in 2004 and offers exhibits to learn about the art form and various famous poets. It also hosts events and workshops.
- Poetry slam. What's a more fun way to celebrate Poetry Day than to gather your friends for a fun night of competition? You can do it right in your living room!
