Mila Nanes named BAM's inaugural Youth Poetry Ambassador

Mila Nanes, a sophomore at State College Area High School, recently accepted the role of Youth Poetry Ambassador. In this academic year-long position, Mila will advocate for and share flyers about the Youth Ekphrastic Poetry Contest, host a youth poetry reading, and share original poems in our Poetry Gallery. 

Mila loves how poems let her express her thoughts and creativity in new ways. Many of her poems are inspired by traveling, spending time with loved ones, and the experiences she gathers in everyday life. Outside of writing, Mila enjoys dancing, participating in mock trials, creating art, being outdoors, and spending time with friends and family.

Please join me in welcoming Mila to our team!
