POETRY OUT LOUD
Student Recitation Competition
Poetry Out Loud is a national recitation program sponsored by the National Endowment for the Arts, in which high
school students present an oral interpretation of a
published poem in a national competition. In California,
the program is sponsored by the California Arts Council. California Poets in the Schools is working with the
Ventura County Arts Council to administer it in Ventura County. Poets are available to assist English teachers
and their students in preparing for the countywide competition. Please visit the Poetry Out Loud web site
at www.poetryoutloud.org for more information.
Contact the VCAC office (805) 658-2213 to get involved.
