NEW MA POETRY OUTREACH PROJECT NEEDS YOUR HELP!
Click Here for the MPOP / LCC Survey
The Massachusetts Poetry Outreach Project (MassPop) is a new
organization dedicated to creating resources to aid and support the
Massachusetts poetry community, as well as exposing more people
throughout the commonwealth to poetry. The MassPOP proposal lists as
its first goal the creation of a database that will include
Massachusetts poets, presenters, writing programs, venues and links to
various technical resources for poets.
So how can you help? We need to know more about the poetry resources
already existing in the state to develop the database and our
programs.
Please Help by forwarding this message; it includes a link to a survey that will assist our
efforts to collect useful information about the Massachusetts poetry
community.

Feel free to fill out the survey yourself if you have thoughts about
poetry in your area!
Who should you forward this page to? People in one (or more than
one) of the following categories:
*Poet
*Teacher of poetry (either in a formal academic setting or who offers
private workshops or teaches at churches, community
center or so on).
*Owner or operator of a poetry venue (including bookstores, churches or community
centers, coffeehouses, libraries)
The Massachusetts Poetry Outreach Project is a partnership
that includes the Massachusetts Cultural Council (MCC) and the
Massachusetts Foundation for the Humanities (MFH), with Cambridge's
Commonwealth Foundation currently serving as fiscal agent. For more
detailed information, please
visit our website www.masspop.org to see more details about the program.
Many thanks for your help!
