Nationally Known Poets Return to Read in Nevada City to Benefit the Community of Writers

This year we are pleased to welcome six extraordinary poets, including two Pulitzer-Prize winners and a 2018 finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. Last year’s Benefit Poetry Reading was such a success that we have decided  to once again return to the Miners Foundry in Nevada City, California.
