Welcome to U.S.1 Poets’ Cooperative

2013coverforwebsite

The Launch Party for Volume 58 was a Great Success!

More than 100 attended the party on April 7th at the Princeton Public Library. Sixty-five poets read their work in the issue, sales were brisk, refreshments plentiful, the audience attentive. Some travelled from as far away as Providence, RI, the northernmost part of NJ, and from deep within Pennsylvania to share in the festivities. Thanks to the library for hosting our event again. We arrived when the library opened and stayed until it closed.

Linda Arntzenius wrote two wonderful articles about the event.
