About the Event
Celebrate the joy of poetry with us on April 30, 2026 for Poem in Your Pocket Day, part of National Poetry Month!
Poem in Your Pocket Day, started in 2002 and run since 2008 by the Academy of American Poets, is all about carrying a favorite poem with you and sharing it with others. Any poem you love will do!
This year, the Mansion House is joining the celebration!
Stop by to experience a unique poetry installation featuring works written by Oneida Community members and their descendants. The best part? You’re invited to take a poem with you and keep the tradition going.
Included with museum admission. No registration required.
Can’t make it on April 30? The installation will remain on view through Sunday, May 3.
