Wausau Pilot & Review
City leaders are soliciting applications from artists interested in becoming Wausau’s next Poet Laureate.
Wausau issued a call for artists and request for proposals this week.
The artist selected through the process will become Wausau’s second Poet Laureate, with $400 in funding provided by the city. Wausau’s Arts Commission will select and oversee the artist during the two-year term.
The Poet Laureate program aims to promote poetry as an art form, expand access to literary arts, connect the community to poetry and promote “poetry as a voice that contributes to a sense of place.”
