Hey St. Paulites, April 15 is the last day to submit poems to the 2019 Sidewalk Poetry Contest! Writers of all ages and levels are invited to join in. And, this year will be the first year since its start in 2008 that non-English submissions will be accepted. Poems written in Spanish, Somali, Hmong and Dakota will now be included as contenders. Winners will receive a $100 prize and have their poems stamped into a St. Paul residential city sidewalk as part of the 2019 sidewalk replacement program.
