Benicia and Liberty High School contestants recite memorized poems. The judges choose one winner and runner-up to send to the Sacramento State Finals, and ultimately to the National Finals for scholarships and prizes.
Sponsored by: The National Endowment for the Arts, The Poetry Foundation, California Arts Council, Solano County Arts Council, Benicia Public Library, Benicia First Tuesday Poetry Group and many others. The Poet Laureate Program and our own Ronna Leon, Benicia Poet Laureate have brought this event to our City.
