We partnered with WITS to create some poems and hang them throughout our stores throughout the year instead of just during poetry month. We were able to make this happen by providing the poster design and allowing stores to opt in and pay for printing costs if they wanted to participate. Poem posters are 11”x17” and hung throughout some of our inner loop stores. The goal was to find poems that are relevant to our current Be The Change campaign, or poems that have an overall Be The Change feeling. Since 1983, Writers in the Schools (WITS) has worked hand-in-hand with educators and professional writers to teach students the craft of writing. WITS is transforming the hearts and minds of young people all over Houston! I find it so exciting to come up with creative ways to spread awareness about the mission of non-profits, like WITS, in our city.
