CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
Mississauga Poet Anna Yin is seeking creative submissions of photos or poems for an upcoming film project based on Public Art and Poetry in the city.
Public art is vital to connect communities and showcase cultural identities. When I was Mississauga’s inaugural poet laureate, I envisioned a project that would link poetry and public art in a collaborative film. In March 2023, I wrote a poem “Reflecting on Public Art in Mississauga” inspired by this idea and submitted it with my film project, together these won MAC’s 2023 spring Matchmaker MicroGrant.
