CFBC TO HOST 7th ANNUAL POETRY CIRCLE ON WORLD POETRY DAY— FRIDAY, 21stMARCH 2025
Basseterre, St. Kitts, 21st February 2025 (CFBC): The Clarence Fitzroy Bryant College (CFBC), the Federation’s only indigenous tertiary institution, will be celebrating and highlighting the work of local poets and joining in the observance of World Poetry Day for a seventh consecutive year, not only in recognition of its significance in the lives of residents of St. Kitts and Nevis, but also to further its flowering and endurance.
The CFBC will host its annual Poetry Circle on Friday, 21st March 2025, at the CFBC’s Main Campus at Burdon Street, Basseterre, in the Poinciana Conference Room at 5pm.
There are great expectations for this national linguistic and cultural event, which will feature notable poets in our Federation, some of whom are published—as well as CFBC students, faculty and staff, and alumni.
The United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) first adopted 21st March as World Poetry Day in 1999 during its 30th General Conference in Paris with the aim of supporting linguistic diversity through poetic expression and increasing the opportunity for endangered languages to be heard.
The theme for World Poetry Day 2025 is “Poetry as a Bridge for Peace and Inclusion”. This theme highlights poetry’s transformative role in promoting peace, creativity, and inclusion by connecting people across borders and fostering mutual understanding and respect.
According to UNESCO “World Poetry Day is the occasion to honour poets, revive oral traditions of poetry recitals, promote the reading, writing and teaching of poetry, foster the convergence between poetry and other arts such as theatre, dance, music and painting, and raise the visibility of poetry in the media. As poetry continues to bring people together across continents, all are asked to join in.”
William Hazlitt said “Poetry is the universal language which the heart holds with nature and itself. It is the bridge that connects us, transcending borders and differences.”
Members of the public are invited to attend the poetry event.
