The 2025 National Poetry Month Poster By Naomi Shihab Nye Is Available Now...“This is the world I want to live in. The shared world.”

I love the posters the Academy of American Poets create and share every year for Poetry Month.  I was so excited to find this years poster on the poets.org site today. 

As shared on the site, 

The 2025 poster features an excerpt from “Gate A-4”, a poem by former Young People’s Poet Laureate and Academy Chancellor Naomi Shihab Nye, as well as artwork by New York Times-bestselling author and illustrator Christy Mandin. 
 
Mandin was selected by Scholastic—the global children’s publishing, education, and media company—to create the artwork for this year’s poster as part of a National Poetry Month collaboration with the Academy of American Poets.

You will find the poster to download here on the site.  You can also request a copy. 
Here is lesson that is also available through the Academy’s Teach This Poem series to bring the poster to life for National Poetry Month.
