CV2

The mandate and primary aim of Contemporary Verse 2 is to educate, engage, and expand public appreciation of the poetic art form by sharing and promoting high-calibre, original verse, and critical writing by local, national, and international poets. Proceeds from this fundraiser and any additional donations will fund workshops, poetry events, and operating costs of the literary magazine. 

We pride ourselves on focusing on inclusivity, seeking to diversify both our readership, the kind of work we publish, and to be constantly and consistently challenging ourselves to assess ways in which we could be more actively engaged in this area of our programming.

CV2 is published by Contemporary Verse 2 Inc., a registered charity that has made it a mission to:

Advance the understanding and appreciation of contemporary poetry through the publication of Contemporary Verse 2: The Canadian Journal of Poetry and Critical Writing and related activities
