Poetry (straw-bale-y) jam

This month our friendly neighbourhood library is hosting their annual Poem-a-Day contest.

It's open to all ages, all styles, and holds the possibility of prizes and publishing!

To celebrate the event you'll find an inspiring, architecture-related poetry display on the counter in our library. Drop by and learn more about architects who are poets, poetry in architecture, architecture in literature and the construction of poetry.

You will also find poetic interventions throughout the library as you browse for books!

Good on paper

Check out the latest edition of Spacing magazine. Their fifth anniversary issue focuses on the "Next generation of city builders" (psst....that's you guys) and features the winners of their thinkTORONTO urban design ideas competition (you guys again).

Some of them wanted to shine a light on the subway, and others wanted to get people reading on the rails...but all of them are about making the city a community.

Of the 20 winning ideas, many were from current and former UW Architecture students. Check out those entries on our bulletin board, or flip through the whole issue on our magazine rack!
