About

For centuries, poetry has been the lifeblood of Armenian culture, with masters like Tumanyan, Sevak, Charents, and Sayat-Nova capturing the spirit of our people through their powerful words. Now, it’s your turn to carry this legacy forward. We invite young Armenians, aged 8 to 14, to express their hearts and creativity by writing a poem that speaks to their soul.
Whether you’re inspired by the beauty of nature, the strength of our history, or the dreams you hold for the future, we want to hear your voice. This is your chance to contribute to Armenia’s rich literary tradition and share your passion through poetry.
But that’s not all. The best poems will be published in a special collection titled "Heartbeats of Armenian Youth", ensuring that your words live on and inspire others. All profits from the book will go directly to the young poets whose works are featured.
