The
Montgomery County Poet Laureate (MCPL)
program was founded by Joanne Leva of Lansdale, PA, to recognize
and promote excellence in poetry. Modeled after the Bucks
County Poet Laureate Program, which has been running successfully
for over 30 years, the MCPL program has just completed it's
13th successful year.
The
MCPL program promotes a sense of accomplishment and pride
among students, artists, and citizens who choose to participate.
The program benefits the county by building a long-term
infrastructure for literary advancements in our community,
in our schools and in our homes.
MCPL
is a non-profit organization supported by the Indian
Valley Arts Foundation (IVA) and our Community Partners:
Musehouse,
NHS
Human Services, Philadelphia
Writers Conference (PWC), Friends
of Graeme Park, Ambler
Library,
Arcadia University, Ambler
Theater, and Molly
Maguire's Restaurant & Pub.
