Eugene 150th Birthday Celebration Poetry Collection - Tapa blanda

About this book project: Eugene poet, C. Steven Blue, was appointed by the Eugene Public Library to organize a special poetry event to help celebrate Eugene's 150th Birthday. Local poets were invited to submit original works with a Eugene, Oregon theme which Steven decided to also organize into a book. Those chosen were asked to read their poems at the celebration on September 29, 2012. This special poetry anthology contains at least one poem from each poet who submitted their work. Young and old, new and experienced poets contributed to this book and to the event. Some of the work was inspired by the library's Summer Reading Series Poetry Workshop and Local Poetry Showcase, both held in July, 2012. Copies of this book, which was jointly published by Arrowcloud Press and Groundwaters Publishing, were awarded to each of the participants and presented to the Eugene Public Library at the event. Proceeds from the sale of this book will go to benefit the Eugene Public Library for its continued support and fine work in our community.

This book was co-published by Arrowcloud Press and Groundwaters Publishing to celebrate Eugene, Oregon's 150th Birthday. The work of 30 Oregon poets are featured in this unique anthology of Eugene themed poetry. Edited by C. Steven Blue and Pat Edwards.
