Overview
The Academy of American Poets is the nation's largest membership-based nonprofit organization fostering an appreciation for contemporary poetry and supporting American poets. Headquartered in New York City and with members in all 50 states and beyond, the organization produces Poets.org, the world’s largest publicly funded website for poets and poetry; originated and organizes National Poetry Month; publishes the popular Poem-a-Day series and American Poets magazine; creates and distributes Teach This Poem and other award-winning resources for K-12 educators; hosts an annual series of poetry readings and special events, including a gala reading in April; and awards the American Poets Prizes and Fellowships. In addition, the Academy of American Poets coordinates a national Poetry Coalition working together to promote the value poets bring to our culture and the important contribution poetry makes in the lives of people of all ages and backgrounds.
