About the Journal

The
Burlington Poetry Journal is an independent publication that is dedicated to the concept that art should be free and accessible to everyone. In a world with so many voices we believe in a community based, eclectic approach to the publication of poetry. Therefore, the BPJ will always welcome any form or style within its pages. We are currently working towards achieving a non-profit 501(c)3 status.

Poetry Reading

On Friday, April 17th, the Burlington Poetry Journal will be hosting a poetry reading at Carol's Hungry Mind Cafe in Middlebury.  The reading will be held from 7pm until 9pm.  This is our first reading for the Journal and we are excited to have a live event and to participate in the oral traditions of poetry.  
    Thank you for your support,
      BPJ Editors
