Join O, Miami and the community for the return of Zip Odes!WLRN, O, Miami, and Vizcaya Museum & Gardens present an evening to celebrate the return of in-person Zip Odes!
“Ode to Your Zip Code” is a South Florida-wide poetry contest created by WLRN and O, Miami, Knight Foundation-funded Poetry Festival, that turns the least lyrical designation of one’s home, a zip code, into an occasion for poetry.
Beginning in March, WLRN and O, Miami will accept odes to South Florida zip codes in the form of the code itself: five lines, with each line containing the number of words designated by the zip numbers. (For example, 3 words, 3 words, 1 word, 3 words, 9 words.) Every Friday beginning on April 1st, WLRN will announce the top ten poems of the week. 20 finalists selected from that pool will read at Vizcaya, with the winners determined by Presidential Inaugural poet Richard Blanco.
Want to contribute your own ode? Wonder around the grounds of Vizcaya, then use her zip code, 33129, to write her an ode.
