Poet Laureate Application
The honorary position of Enfield Poet Laureate was established in 2020 by the Enfield Culture and Arts Commission (ECAC) with support of the Enfield Town Council.
As the Town’s representative poet, the Poet Laureate serves as an advocate for poetry and promotes the appreciation of and participation in poetry and literary arts activities among Enfield residents. The Enfield and Culture and Arts Commission will appoint an Enfield resident as the Town Poet Laureate through an application process.
