Poetry beautifies public space, pays respect to the intelligence of the citizenry, gives respite from the grind of daily living and engages the city's humanistic ideals." - Dionne Brand

We are very pleased to invite you to the re-opening of the Cedarbrae Library and the launch of the first permanent installation of the Poet Laureate's Legacy Initiative Project, Poetry is Public is Poetry. Dionne Brand will be present to introduce Rosemary Sullivan's poetry in the pavement.

The inaugural Poetry is Public is Poetry installation will be unveiled near the main entrance. This collaborative endeavour involves City of Toronto's Cultural Services and Transportation Services working in close co-operation with the Toronto Public Library and the Toronto Public Library Foundation.

Further details on the Legacy Project are available at http://www.poetryispublic.ca
